Mission Trip
June 22 -28, 2008
This is a week
long mission retreat in North Minneapolis for high school
students.
Each day begins
with breakfast at 7 AM. Work crews leave to go to work
sites at about 9 AM and return by 3:30 PM. Each work site
has been pre-arranged by the host parish with parishioners in
need. Work may include painting, yard work, construction,
home maintenance/repair, cleaning, childcare, and helping at
food distribution centers.
The work day ends
with some free time to play, write, nap, chat or whatever. Then
each night has a different program with activities, skits,
music, videos, teen testimonials, motivational speakers and
prayer.
Special care has
been taken to assure the safety of the kids. Talk to Steve if you have any concerns.
Jesus
says,
"whatever you do for the least of my brothers, you do for me"
Matthew 25:40 |
Our activities include movie parties, ski/snowboarding/tubing parties, Net
Ministries masses, and retreats, as well as service projects to aid the
hungry, the lonely, or the homeless. Fundraisers throughout the year
fund these activities as well as help defray the costs of Summer
Festival, Discipleship Week, and missionary trips.
