Service Trips

Each year we offer summer service trips for our high school students.  Students from the parish have worked in Worcester, Newark, NJ, and Pittsburg, PA.  We hope to add Appalachia to our locations in summer 2012.  These trips are open to all high school students and require a commitment:  to our call to serve one another; to the parish and the support they give; and to oneself to foster all that God created you to be .  To defray the cost of the week, all participants are required to participate in fundraising activities.  For summer 2011 we had 30 students participate in this program.  Sign-ups, which begin with a $50 deposit happen in late September with additional payments in March and May.  We don’t wish anyone to be left out, so if cost is a factor, please call and speak with the coordinator.  We will explore all options to insure all interested students participate.
