Join other young people from around the diocese as we seek to encounter Christ through serving those in need. We take what we receive in the Holy Mass - Love itself - and share that with others through the spiritual and corporal works of mercy.
Area high school youth and their parents are invited to a summer mission trip! Prayer and Action offers a rich experience of the Christian lifestyle where a relationship with God overflows as service to others.
Whole youth groups from a parish (as well as individual students) can sign up for a mission week from the options below. A team of stellar college students will be leading the program, selecting the projects - painting houses, cleaning yards, etc - and sharing the Gospel throughout.
We stay overnight at the local parish and take turns cooking meals for each other. The $140 registration fee covers all food for the week, the t-shirt, and helps with the cost of paint and other materials required to serve those in need.
