Mission: Jersey

Make a Difference… Join the Mission.

This year's Mission: Jersey (2022) will consist of FOUR, one day, in-person service events around the Diocese! Each of the days will be similar to each other. This Community Service retreat experience brings teens together from around the Diocese to live out our Catholic Faith and help those in need.

Teens are invited to join us for 1 of the service days.

"For we are God's workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do  GOOD WORKS, which God prepared in advance for us to do." Ephesians 2:10

Who can come?

All teens in the 8th grade through those who just graduated highschool (12th grade) are welcome! Please choose just ONE of the dates to attend. 

What do we do?  

We will all meet at a Parish and remain there the entire day.  All participants will learn about and participate in several different service projects that support local community service agencies.  All projects will be arranged and supervised by adult leaders and representatives from the organizations we partner with.

Our day will also include prayer, a witness talk , breakout discussions,  new friends, games and more! It is very much a service “retreat”. Please come ready to help in whatever way is needed! 

Please try to register at least one week prior to the date you are attending to help us best prepare for the event!
