The time has come for juniors to begin the process of picking a service agency. The annual service fair will be held Sept. 25. So far, 16 agencies have committed to attend the fair, but Director of Campus Ministry Meredith Snyder anticipates more agencies to participate.

Each year prior to students’ phase one volunteering at their respective agencies, the school requires the juniors to watch “Protecting God’s Children,” a video regarding child abuse. The film provides an explanation of how to ensure children’s safety as well as how to protect oneself. This year the juniors will watch it Oct. 1 and 2.
