Unveiling Purpose: Bridging Engineering and Compassion

In a remarkable journey shaped by a childhood missions trip to Guatemala, Brianna Pacecca discovered her passion for sharing the gospel and providing clean water to those in need. Little did she anticipate that her academic pursuit in civil engineering would become a powerful tool for making a difference in the lives of people in third-world countries.

During her college years at Cedarville University, Brianna's trajectory was further defined by an impactful internship with Samaritan’s Purse, focusing on water and sanitation initiatives. This experience not only reinforced her commitment to addressing crucial global challenges but also ignited a deep conviction that her engineering skills could be a vessel for connecting people with the message of hope found in Jesus.

As Brianna stands on the brink of graduating from Cedarville, her journey takes an exciting turn. A month after receiving her diploma, she will embark on a new chapter, marrying her college sweetheart and relocating to northern Ohio, where both have engineering positions awaiting them. Their shared aspiration is clear: gain valuable experience, alleviate personal debts, and ultimately transition into a life of service as missionaries.

Join us in this inspiring episode as Brianna reflects on her transformative journey, revealing how a childhood calling has led her to blend engineering expertise with compassion, creating a path that transcends borders and brings hope to those in need.
