EYM Mission Trip Vision
Epiphany Youth Ministry (EYM) mission trips exist to spread the Gospel message by establishing and maintaining relationships with communities in need. Our young people grow in faith, hope and charity through a week long immersion of Catholic Social Teaching. Students experience the Sacraments, Corporal Works of Mercy, and Spiritual Works of Mercy. Our mission trips encourage students to be missionary disciples of Jesus Christ.
We are excited to offer this opportunity to work with and serve the Pueblo communities. While on the reservation, our students will lead Vacation Bible School for Pre-K through 5th Grade. We use the same theme and supplies as Epiphany VBS. Volunteering for Epiphany's VBS is highly encouraged for students attending our mission trip. We will also help with various service projects within the community. The work we do is important, but the relationships we build are the purpose for our trip.
The anticipated cost per student this year is $550 (A bus costs $11,500). Fundraising will help offset this cost and it is expected each young person will fully participate in our fundraising efforts. We have multiple ways to do this:
Interviews of those who apply will begin March 21st. A schedule will be sent to the applicant to select their time and day to come and speak with Megan and Joey.
