Justice, Service and Solidarity

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.

St. Anthony's Foundation San Francisco
Come serve in the Dining Room or new for 2018 in the Clothing Program in St. Anthony's in San Francisco. Parents organize and lead these trips with all instructions are provided by me. This has been a very successful trip for many years here at CCOP and I encourage parents to get involved by serving with your teen. Parents who are not leading will not be able to go with the group as we are limited in how big our group can be. Teens are expected to travel to and from the city with the group. Working in the clothing program you will sort clothing, help to organize the "store" for guests, and help guests to find clothing for themselves.

Donut/Cookie Sunday
The first Sunday of every month, Knights of Columbus offer donuts after the morning Masses and cookies after the evening Masses. This offers an opportunity for parishioners to spend time getting to know each other, and for teens to earn some service hours. You can sign up for one or more shifts. This is a fun way to earn some hours and get to know some of our parishioners too.
