Saints Peter and Paul High School Mission Trip
August 26, 2009, Easton, MD -- Twenty-five Saints Peter and Paul High School students traveled to Gallup, New Mexico, in late June where they spent eight days working in the community. One group of students worked at a food pantry helping to reorganize supplies and clean up around the outside of the building. Others worked at a nursing home with the Little Sisters of the Poor where they cleaned up and painted some metal chairs for the residents and painted a wall surrounding an outside courtyard. They also created a peace path for residents and their families to enjoy. Another group worked with Care 66 - an organization that works to reduce homelessness in the area. They painted and cleaned a homeless shelter, cleared a half-acre lot where a shelter for veterans is slated to be built, and put together several armoires to hold residents’ clothing and personal items.
