“CHARITY IS THE CEMENT WHICH BINDS COMMUNITIES TO GOD AND PERSONS TO ONE ANOTHER.” – St. Vincent de Paul

At St. Vincent de Paul College Prep, we believe that it is our responsibility to contribute to the formation of the whole person and do so by putting an emphasis on the
value of giving of ourselves to those in our greater community. As an offshoot of our Theology Department, the Christian Service Program includes the following elements:

– Fall Student Service Fair
– Spring Day of Service
– Class Service Trips
– Online advertising & tracking of service opportunities through our portal, Mobileserve.
– Annual 25 hour completion & 100 hour minimum 4-year service goals.

Theology students are assigned reflective activities at the end of each semester, culminating in incorporation of the entire
service learning experience into the students’ Senior Learning Defense.

Service: the Requirement and the Opportunity

Each year, every SV Mustang gives of their time in service to
local nonprofit organizations. Through our Student Service Program and annual Spring Day of Service, SV
students and teachers alike truly live the Scriptural call to love our neighbor.

By fulfilling the graduation requirement of service to others, our graduates enrich their own growth and wisdom while making a practice of supporting those who need our help; a lifelong reward.
