Day of Interfaith Youth Service

On Sunday, April 22 a group of Senior Highs (Stu, Ben, Jake S., Jeff, Jake D., Renee, Jessica, Natasha, and myself) ventured to Humboldt Park for a Day of Interfaith Service sponsored by Interfaith Youth Core.

We had a great time cleaning up and mulching parts of the park (in observance of Earth Day), engaging in inter-religious dialogue, and enjoying fellowship with each other and new friends.

IFYC is a great organization that I hope we continue to be involved with. Inter-religious education, dialogue, and experiences are so incredibly important in today's world. It was a lot of fun to collaborate with youth and adults from a wide range of religious backgrounds on a common cause: the protection and beautification of our natural environment.
