The Campus Ministry at Edgewood High School is the harbor from which our Liturgies and Prayer Services, Service Programs, Peer Ministry course and Retreats set sail. Our ships are built on strength of character and integrity. Our sails reflect the interpersonal communication with which we develop collaborative spiritual leadership. Our horizons beckon us to enter the Kingdom of Heaven, meeting each other, sailing together, and riding the waves with the Holy Spirit as our guide.

RETREATS: See 2010-'11 retreat dates
Every student at Edgewood High School is required to attend a retreat each year. The retreats are planned and facilitated by the Campus Ministry staff, as well as by Peer Ministry Mentors. These experiential- and values-based retreats -- each with its own unique thematic approach ranging from community to relationship-building to service to listening to God -- continue to be high points for the students as each of them travels his or her own personal faith journey. The location and duration of each retreat varies from after school to an overnight for the seniors. Many of the activities are peer-led.
SERVICE PROGRAM
EUCHARISTIC CELEBRATIONS IN THE ABSENCE OF A PRIEST (ECAPs)
Our Peer Ministry students have the opportunity to plan ECAPs to develop their capability for service to the Lord and the people of His Church. ECAPs are frequent and are open to all faculty and students to attend, during free mods.
