This summer St. John’s will send its fourth group of parishioners to South Africa on a mission of understanding and introspection about faith and God’s grace in their lives and the lives of the people with whom they will engage. While meaningful for all, it is especially important for our youth to experience service/work opportunities, visit key sites of South African history and present realities, gain an understanding of the environmental conditions of its varied landscape, and contemplate the role of countries like the US in global economic and social development. Young participants will also live with families as part of homestays.
Please consider helping us to reach our goal of $3,500 to distribute to various entities during our stay. All donations are greatly appreciated.
