February 20-March 30
This year we will be taking our missionaries on a destination mission trip as well as holding a local mission. June 27-July 2 we will take 12 student missionaries to St Louis to serve that community through Young Neighbors in Action or YNIA. YNIA is a week-long, Catholic service learning experience for youth between 14-18 years of age. People ask, "Why should we travel to serve the poor when we have needs in our own community?" In our own communities, we often don't recognize needs or social issues. When we go into new communities and meet the homeless, the poor, and the marginalized face-to-face and get to know their stories, and see them as brothers and sisters...we are able to recognize those needs in our own communities when we come home. Eyes are opened!
A little bit about Young Neighbors in Action:

If you need some work done outside of the home, or if you know of someone in the area that needs some work done, please fill out a work request. We have dates in April for our family mission and in July for our local mission where we will send a work crew to your home to complete the service.
