Summer 2012 - Service Mission Trips
Seton is offering six different service experiences during Summer 2012. A mandatory meeting was held on Monday, November 4 for parents and students who wish to participate in the trips. Please contact Sr. Sandy Howe, SC for more information.
The Mission Trip Experience
The goal of Seton's mission trips is to start out locally and move beyond Cincinnati, before going out of the country. Students do not have to leave the country to have a beneficial and meaningful experience. Those experiences can happen any place and at any time if students are open to them.
