Description

Mission Corps

Our Mission Statement:

Jesuit High School, in its mission as a Catholic, Jesuit, college preparatory school, labors to form men engaged in the world who are dedicated to serving God by being open to growth, intellectually competent, religious, loving, and just.

Program Outline:
The Jesuit High School Mission Corps is a post-college volunteer program for Catholic men.

Participants of the program serve for one academic year as part-time faculty members and campus ministers at Jesuit High School, an all-boys college preparatory school in Tampa, FL which has repeatedly made
national news over the last few years for its culture of brotherhood, faith, and conversion.

Mission Corps volunteers commit to living in community near campus, growing in Jesuit spirituality and educational philosophy, and mentoring students in faith and virtue through retreats, discipleship groups, and other campus ministry initiatives.

Details:

Mission Corps volunteers teach in an area of competence and immerse themselves throughout the life of the school through coaching, tutoring, club moderating, community service, and especially campus ministry.

Volunteers also meet regularly with a spiritual director from the Jesuit community and gather regularly with the Jesuits in the residence for community prayer and dinner.

The program is a full-time commitment, so volunteers may not hold another job, work with another volunteer program, or take classes.

There are no fundraising requirements; participants receive monthly stipends for personal expenses.

They reside in a home near campus with rent and utilities provided by Jesuit and commit to daily prayer, community life, and ongoing formation.

Requirement:
Successful completion of Level II Background Screening.
