ONE Week Senior High in Hoquiam

This week, our ONE Week high school students will be serving at Our Lady of Good Help in Hoquiam, Washington from July 19th - 24th. Lets keep them all in our prayers and be thankful to God that they felt called to make a difference in our greater community!

ONE Week Senior High is a service learning program especially designed for teams of adults and young people in the 9, 10, 11, and 12 grades from Catholic parishes and schools. It is a 6-day, 5-night experience that offers participants the opportunity to challenge themselves by living in solidarity with the poor in a supportive community environment. It puts service learning in the context of Catholic identity. Participants will be challenged to learn and grow in their Catholic faith while seeing service as a core Gospel value and a major part of what it means to be Catholic.
