Are you interested in going on our 2023 mission trip to Catholic Heart Workcamp in Richmond, Virginia, from June 18 to 24?
The trip is open to youth who will be entering the eighth grade in the fall of 2023 through teens who will graduate from high school in 2023.
We will be painting, cleaning, doing yard work, building handicapped-accessible ramps, and other simple work projects within the community. It will be a full week of listening to, learning from, and loving the people we meet in Richmond.
We have 30 slots open for youth and 5-6 slots for adult chaperones. The total cost of the trip is $700 per student – the parish will cover $400 for teens who are parishioners.
Mission trip participants are expected to pay the remaining $300, starting with a $150 nonrefundable deposit by Jan. 30. Teens can participate in mission trip fundraising events to receive credit toward their second installment of $150. Otherwise, they need to pay the $150 by April 30.
Non-parishioner teens who want to go on the mission trip are responsible for the $150 non-refundable deposit by Jan. 30 also. The remaining $550 cost of the trip is the responsibility of that teen’s parish. These teens also can participate in mission trip fundraising events to receive credit toward the total cost.
All mission trip participants also are required to read, sign and return the 2023 Mission Trip Financial Commitment form and return it to the St. Conrad or St. Paul office by Jan. 30, 2023.
