 Sisters of Charity Seeking Applicants for Charity in the City Program
The Sisters of Charity of New York are offering the third year of their Charity in the City service program. This two-week volunteer option offers young lay women 18-30 years of age a chance to live and work with the Sisters and their associates in their ministries to the poor - especially to women and children, new immigrants and the homeless. (Think of it as a short-term Peace Corps.) There will be chances to visit NYC’s tourist sites, too. This year’s program runs June 1 - 13 in New York City and environs. No experience needed, just a desire to help and a willingness to live simply. Apply by May 17 - or as soon after that date as possible. Details and application are available online at  www.scny.org For more information, contact the program’s administrator: Sr. Mary Katherine Hamm, SC; 718.549.9200, Ext. 264 or mkhamm@scny.org.

Wide Awake! Evangelical Catholic Training Camps
Evangelical Catholic is offering Evangelization Training Camps this spring! Evangelization training camps lay the spiritual and ministerial foundations for students and staff to unify around a common vision of ministry outreach and formation. They envision integrating existing programs with new programs to accomplish their outreach and formation goals.  Students learn practical ministry skills to help them truly become co-laborers with staff.  Staffs gain practical frameworks to bring focus to their widespread and consuming ministry responsibilities. Visit www.evangelicalcatholic.org to register and for more information.
