Saint Joan of Arc Youth Ministry organizes a Mission Trip for youth in grades 9-12 in order for our youth to experience solidarity with the Lakota people. They have an opportunity to understand the history, culture and spirituality of the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation. The youth spend one week of their summer working side by side with other volunteers on projects and build relationships with the community.

2013 Mission Trip will be July 27-August 2, 2013. More information will be available as we get closer to the registration dates.

Adult volunteers, with excellent teenage listening and communication skills are welcome to experience this trip as leadership. Volunteers undergo a background check, sign SJA’s Code of Conduct and complete VIRTUS training. For more information about Youth Ministry or to volunteer, contact Donelle Poling, dpoling@stjoan.com
