What is a High School Service Trip?
The High School Service Trip is an annual opportunity offered by Pax Christi. It is open to any high school student, Catholic or otherwise, in grades 8-12 (during the school year before the summer trip). While there are many reasons parishes offer service trips, we are convinced that our main reason is because Christ has called us and has commissioned us to recognize the intrinsic dignity that resides in each and every person we meet. This year we are partnering with Alive in You Catholic Service Camps. Alive in You will be coordinating our projects and host facility in Indianapolis along with providing the programing for the week.

What to Expect
Every day at Alive in You will be a new adventure. Our days will be packed with awesome praise and worship music, Mass, prayer, motivational speakers, opportunities for the Sacrament of Confession, adoration of the Blessed Sacrament, service, and education about the Catholic faith. Our group will also have time to come together daily for parish time to share our experiences with one another.

Theme
Every year Alive in You chooses a Catholic theme that will be emphasized throughout the week. Each day will include a focus that supports the weekly theme. Evening sessions, activities, service work, parish time, and the conference will all be connected in order for you to easily grasp the message of the week. As soon as we know this year's theme we will let you know so you can begin to prepare yourself for the trip.

Activities
Throughout the week, we like to mix things up a little bit and have different workshops and hands-on team building activities. Some of these will be set up directly to benefit local charities and communities. This provides a positive experience for all the participants and help to reinforce the them for the week all while helping the community we will be serving.
