ONE Week is an extraordinary opportunity to answer Christ’s call to action! Alongside your peers, you will work to implement God’s plan of justice and peace in the world. Open your heart to God’s call to help the poor and vulnerable and learn about how important this call is to the Catholic Church. Discover new ways to live out your faith, not just for ONE week, but for the rest of your life.
