COLLEGE YOUTH MISSION
Orthodox Service from the Heart
College Youth Mission is our mission outreach arm. In partnership with HOPE and OCCM, the SUS Diocese College Youth Mission plans an annual mission trip where youth participate in ministry efforts and bring many encouragements from this ministry back to their local parish and OCCM chapter.
Service Trip to Egypt 2024
Our service trip to Egypt will be dedicated to various services in the Diocese of Elminya, a children's camp at St. Mark's Village, and the Second Chance program at Anafora. We will visit holy and ancient sites immersing ourselves in our Coptic roots, and enjoy the culture at some hangout spots! Find all the details in the Trip Information Packet (TIP).
