    The heart of ministry and faith formation is encounter and accompaniment.  Accept Pope Francis's challenge to leave the comfort of the shore and broaden your horizon. Join us this summer as we journey to the U.S. Border at El Paso, TX/Juarez, MX or come with us this Fall to Appalachia in West Virginia to hear the stories of hope and resilience.  Come back transformed and renewed to continue your work in forming missionary disciples on fire with the Joy of the Gospel.  Subsidies are available to help offset the suggested donation to cover trip costs.

    El Paso, TX / Juárez, MX

    August 6 - 12, 2022

    Thousands continue to flee to the US to escape violence and poverty in their own countries. Hear the stories first-hand from immigrants, those who work with them, and the Border Patrol. It is an opportunity to learn, judge, and analyze for yourself, through prayer and the Gospel, how God is inviting us to respond to this difficult situation.

     

    This trip is particularly designed for teachers, catechists, and other parish and diocesan ministers, but is open to all who are eager to learn and then share the experience with others.

     

    Donation requested of $925 to help cover trip costs, which includes accommodations, meals and in-country transportation. Participants are responsible for travel expenses to and from El Paso, TX.
