Today Bishop Luers had a Sodalitas Service Learning Day in the community! Everyone participated in acts of service instead of having normal classes. Locations included Community Harvest Food Bank, Lutheran Life Villages, Christ Child Society, Catholic Charities, several of our feeder schools, and more! The day concluded in the BLHS gymnasium, with the whole school praying a Living Rosary together.
We call this a Service Learning day with the acronym of SODALITAS, which means the following:
Serve
Others with
Dignity
As we
Love and grow in
Integrity and
Truth
Academically and
Spiritually
Here are some of the feedback we received from those we served today:
“Thank you so much for all the help from the Luers kids today! They did an amazing job with clearing leaves and moving chairs for us. With their help, I saved countless hours and an extremely sore back from their help. I look forward to the next time they come to help.”
“I have had such great comments about the Luers students here today. They worked hard and the adults that were here today were very impressed. Thank you for organizing them to come help us with our mulch – the church grounds look beautiful!”
“Thank you so much for the help today! Everything went better than I had anticipated. They accomplished a lot of things for us and their help was amazing!”
“The Luers kids today were awesome! It was so great to have the help; it made such a difference to our organization and saved us so many hours of work. And your kids were so pleasant, polite and full of joy! We can’t wait to have you come back again!”
“Your kids today were AWESOME! We had a great crew here working. It was so fun to see several of our St. Therese alums here again. They grow up so fast!”
