Summer Service Opportunities

Serving others: A year-round commitment

Each year we receive word of many needs from agencies and other organizations service opportunities for Mount Notre Dame students. The summer is a great time to focus on the service you are doing, not worring about school work and homework.

Opportunities include long-term needs, along with one-time events and week-long activities.

Information about these experiences will be posted as they are developed. So check back frequently!

Liberty, KY Service Trip
June 19 - 25, 2012

What is Liberty, KY? It is many things. It is a way to escape for a few days to learn about simplicity. It is a chance to get in touch with nature and the beauty (and challenge) of growing food organically. It is an opportunity to spend time with people who not only love God, but live their faith every moment of every day. It is an experience where you will serve others, grow closer to your friends, make many new friends, and laugh (a lot!). It is an opportunity to meet some amazing people from around the world, folks with life stories that will stretch your mind. You also will learn a bit about farming, spend time with some wonderful Mennonite friends, help with construction projects, listen to some awesome music, serve elderly and differently-abled friends, and much more.
