Register now for the 2017 El Salvador Immersion
Join us in September for a mission immersion trip to learn more about the people and church in El Salvador. Explore how we are linked to the people of Central America in the bonds of global solidarity.
Pray at the sites of the martyrs of El Salvador, including Blessed Oscar Romero.
Leaving the comfort of home to meet our brothers and sisters in another land is a real and concrete way we encounter Christ in each other. Come see what new dimensions of faith, hope and love Jesus wants to share with and through you!
