“Throughout this summer, I have remained strong in my faith by actively engaging with the media team and contributing my skills to spread the message of God at church, Mt. Gerizim Christian Center. This involvement has allowed me to volunteer for my church and has also led to a greater connection with God.” – Javen Gates ’25 (pictured with the Mt. Gerizim Christian Center’s Director of Children and Youth Ministries Charles Heidelberg)

“To stay active in my faith during the summer, I attend Mass weekly with my Grandma. I have been setting aside time daily to read my devotional and pray.

It was great having you back, Sr. Jean Baptiste! #Prep #Family
