about PACE
The Holdbrooks’ are so excited to be serving with RUF at the University of Delaware! Pace and Laura met in college at the University of North Alabama in Florence, AL. As a young Christian, Pace found community and purpose through an excellent campus ministry and the love of the local church. Laura came to faith at a young age, was active in a few different ministries in college, and met Pace at the local PCA church. After getting married, they left Alabama to study at Covenant Theological Seminary in St. Louis, MO. After 3 incredible years in the Midwest, Pace earned his M.Div and took a job at a church in Laura’s home town. From 2019 to May 2024, Pace served as an Assistant Pastor (pastoring teens, college students, and children), while Laura became a school counselor after earning her Master’s at the University of Alabama. Pace and Laura love college students and are excited to be a part of the work God is doing at UD!
