Engaging Students, Putting Faith into ActionAll-School Liturgies & Spiritual Retreats
Dominican is blessed to have the services of Fr. Charles Mbuyi who celebrates masses, offers reconciliation services and ministers daily to students, faculty and staff.
DHS offers several faith-development opportunities. Students also grow in self-awareness and faith through monthly all-school liturgies and impactful, well-planned annual retreats for each grade level. Under the leadership of our Director of Campus Ministry, students are given the opportunity to take the lead in organizing these liturgies, prayer services and various retreats.
Dominican's Campus Ministry and community outreach programs enable students to truly live their faith. Campus Ministry programs engage students to put their faith into action:
- Each week, Dominican students prepare over 400 sandwiches for homeless and poor men, women and children through programs at the Guest House of Milwaukee.
- Students, parents, alumni, faculty and staff prepare and serve meals several times each year at St. Benedict the Moor, a Milwaukee parish serving the homeless and working poor. The St. Ben's Community Meal program serves several hundred guests six nights a week.
- For the past five years, DHS students have been recognized by Heifer International for annually raising $5,000 for an Ark which funds the purchase of farm animals, enabling families around the world to escape cycles of devastating poverty and build communities that are self--sustaining.
In addition to these activities, Campus Ministry organizes other community service programs to provide food and clothing to Milwaukee's poor.
