Austin Stone Abuse

I was intimidated by everyone at the Stone when I first encountered them, like the letter jacket clad cool kids who lumber through parted crowds. I wish I could say working there softened that first impression, but working there more like fulfilled the premonition.

I shared part of my story on a podcast.

I also share more about my experience @2ekelleytx on Instagram.

Hi, my name is Maritza, but people who know me from the Stone call me Ritz.

I attended The Austin Stone as a university student from about 2005-2008, participating in various volunteer roles and “missions trips”. After graduating, I was in various intern/staff positions from 2008-2012.

I came on staff in 2008 as a Kidstuff intern, stayed for another year in the same position, and completed my last year of interning as the Childcare Ministry Intern.
