All are welcome to join Campus Ministry for an exciting and meaningful Mission Trip to Washington, D.C., on Monday, May 7 through Saturday, May 12, 2018.
Serve the homeless, residentially deprived and underpaid workers through Our Daily Bread and the Gales Mission.
Seminars will be taught about:
- Challenges of immigration
- Oppression of women, men, children through sex and labor trafficking
- Struggles of persons living with addiction and mental health issues
- Problems caused by lack of rehabilitation while imprisoned
- Efforts of undocumented workers trying to become citizens.
Participants will also gain information on other present issues of social justice and present to our Ohio senators and representatives about the need for Congress to hear the urgency that such issues pose to our nation. Participants are invited to bring the spirit of their religious traditions – Gospel of Luke, the Psalms, the Quran and they will visit Our Lady of Mount Carmel at the Basilica of the National Shrine of the Immaculate Conception. They will also have a great time seeing the sights of D.C and riding the Metro!
