• Service Immersion Trips

  Service immersion trips provide students with the opportunity to engage directly with diverse communities, both locally and globally, allowing them to put their faith and values into action. Through hands-on service and cultural immersion, students gain a deeper understanding of social justice issues, develop empathy, and strengthen their commitment to serving others. These experiences not only enrich their academic and personal growth but also prepare them to be responsible, compassionate leaders in an increasingly interconnected world.
