Impact! Vancouver is a 4 month summer mission for
young adults and university students, led by Catholic Christian Outreach.
Catholic Christian Outreach (CCO)
is a university student movement dedicated to evangelization. We challenge
students to live in the fullness of the Catholic faith, with a strong emphasis
on becoming leaders in the renewal of the world.
60 Young adults and university students will be coming to Vancouver to participate in this mission project. During the day, from Monday to Friday, they will be working in part-time or full-time jobs.
On the evenings and weekends they will lead and participate in formation and training, weekly faith studies, retreats, and outreach events. They will be in parishes throughout the archdiocese, assisting the community with the work of evangelization.
Dates
Impact! Vancouver will run from May 3rd - August 15, 2007
