Student Profile: Madison “Aussie” Telschow

Madison “Aussie” Telschow
Classification: 11th Grade
Fatih West Academy

Madison attended a private, Christian school in Perth, Australia (hence her nickname, Aussie) for years prior to returning to the U.S. last year. She recalls that when she first moved there at the age of 11, her new friends had expectations of her as an American. Her accent was what they might have expected, and they often asked her to repeat phrases. Her classmates expected her to have blonde hair and blue eyes. She did not. What they found was a girl with whom they had a lot in common. They found a girl firm in her beliefs who set an example for others to follow.

Madison continues to demonstrate those same attributes as a leader in the activities, clubs, and organizations she has joined. Madison is an active member of the Second Baptist Jump Team, a group of high school singers and dancers that help lead worship for all ages. She is the school chapel band leader and a varsity cheerleader; last year, she took 1st place at Nationals in Dance Duo.

Yes, I’ll Support Katy Christian Magazine

Joseph Menslage

As the President and Publisher of Katy and Fort Bend Christian Magazines, Joe Menslage is committed to covering social and political news from a Christian worldview. He founded Katy Christian Magazine in 2005, which swept the greater Houston and Katy areas like a storm. That’s when Joe realized the urgent need for publications willing to give voices to the voiceless, without political correctness or censorship. Joe Menslage founded sister-publication Fort Bend Christian Magazine in 2014. Prior to creating Katy Christian Magazine, Joe Menslage led a colorful life. He was born in Lake Charles, Louisiana, spent a great deal of his childhood in Colorado, and lived in a couple of other states before he moved to Houston in 1981. Joe was God-gifted with an entrepreneurial mind, and self-started other business ventures before he found his calling. In Joe’s words, our innate talents are given by the Lord, and are meant to be used to serve the Lord. Aside from being a President and Publisher, Joe Menslage is also the co-founder of Katy Christian Chamber of Commerce, where Christians can network, build business connections, listen to passionate speakers, and enjoy monthly breakfasts and lunches. Joe Menslage also hosts a weekly political satire YouTube channel. Joe Menslage has four children. Outside of work, he enjoys hiking, watching zombie movies and K dramas, ax-throwing and Krav Maga.
