CHWC: The mission of Catholic Heart Workcamp (CHWC) is “to share the love of Christ as we serve the neglected, brokenhearted and the marginalized in any way needed. Equally, to inspire participants to live as disciples of Christ through serving others as a way of life; and to foster the Catholic Faith of each participant through the sacraments, prayer and involvement in social service.” During a week on mission, teens will have the opportunity to serve the less fortunate in Huntingburg, IN and grow in faith with hundreds of teens from across the country! The trip will be July 5^th – July 11^th. This week is transformative and has a lasting impact on all who attend as we come back home on fire and with a new lens to see the need and the ways we can help in our very own community! CHWC is open to all incoming 8^th graders through graduating seniors!

Cost per person to attend is $275 with fundraising opportunities taken advantage of! If your family chooses not to participate in fundraising events, cost will be $475 to cover the registration fee for the camp.
