Would you like to change someone's life? The SCN Lay Mission Volunteer Program, sponsored by the Sisters of Charity of Nazareth, invites lay women and men of all ages and religions into service with economically poor people in Belize, Mexico, Appalachia and New Orleans.

Joplin, Missouri
After receiving word from Amtrack that the train from Chicago to Montana was once again being delayed because of flooding in North Dakota, five of the nine volunteers made the decision to postpone our mission trip to the Blackfeet Reservation in Montana and travel to Joplin, Missouri on June 8th.
We arrived in Joplin around 5:30pm. We were graciously welcomed to take up residence in the College View Baptist Church for the next four days.
In our hearts, we know that this is where we should be,
helping our brothers and sisters to recover from the harshness of this horrible tragedy.
Love,
Sr. Luke
