Make a Difference… Join the Mission.

This year's Mission: Jersey 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

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.  Project will include making sandwiches and “blessing bags” for the homeless, making blankets for hospice ministry, preparing packages of Diapers for families in need and more.   All projects will be arranged and supervised by adult leaders and representatives from the organizations we partner with.
