There can be no more eloquent witness or testimony to faith than simply “doing unto others” in the name of Christ. It is in the lived, experienced and reflected upon service to others that our teens truly learn who it is that is their neighbor and what it is to be transformed through loving that neighbor.  
Service opportunities that are on this page can be applied towards your ministry service hour goals (hours required for within CCOP), even if it is an opportunity that goes off site. Please check back often for new opportunities as this page will be updated as things become available.

ST. ANTHONY'S DINING HALL
A great opportunity for our teens to serve the truly marginalized in our society!  As a group we will travel to the Tenderloin District in San Francisco.  In the Dining Hall we will help serve over 2,000 meals.  In the clothing shop, we will sort items, and display them in a clothing boutique where customers can come and shop for items.  Both opportunities have made a significant impact on all the teens that have gone previously.  Currently, St. Anthony's is only allowing people to serve who are fully vaccinated.  Please make sure proof of vaccination is available.  Families will pay for their teen to be transported on BART.
