A Look Back at an Action-Packed Summer for St. Leo’s Parish Youth

From a mission trip to Michigan to the M.A.D. (Make a Difference) Camp to a successful week of Totus Tuus, the youth of St. Leo’s made the most of their summer as they grew closer to Christ and each other through active discipleship. Thank you to all the youth who took part in these activities and service projects and also to all the volunteers and parish staff who helped make it all possible.

During St. Leo’s 2021 Mission Trip, Team One showed off their painting skills at the Living Waters Camp outside of Montague, Mich. They helped spruce up the campground, including painting this concession stand.

The St. Leo’s Totus Tuus team helped our young people understand and experience the celebration of the Mass in a dynamic way. This included empowering the children to proclaim the Word of God as lectors.

During St. Leo’s 2021 Mission Trip, Team Two served at Community Compass, an organization that helps those in need in Muskegon, Mich. The team spent time painting, rebuilding cubicles, and putting in this new floor.

M.A.D. Campers (Make A Difference) spent time loving on the dogs at the Central Nebraska Humane Society this past July.

Almost 60 young people from all the parishes in Grand Island and Doniphan experienced a week of Totus Tuus at St. Leo’s this summer.
