Hello! I am Mary Poljan from Lansing, Michigan. I attend Michigan Technological University, where I study Chemical Engineering and spend my free time hiking, attending mass, and exploring Lake Superior. One of the biggest blessings in my life is my parents, six older siblings, and my two nephews! Thanks to them and my community, I have grown to know the importance of helping all God’s children with the talents He has given us. Having been immersed in Catholic tradition all my life, I have a desire to share my love of God and the Eucharist with the world through my service to others. It is an honor to serve with Catholic Mission Trips in the 2025 summer if even for a few weeks!
