community service cleanup

In response to the devastation caused by the October tornadoes, Cistercian students, faculty and monks helped clean up debris for some families in our community. We hope to do more. If you are in need, contact your Form Master; and if you want to help, contact your Form’s community service council representative. Solidarity is a gift of God. “Love one another with mutual affection; anticipate one another in showing honor…. Rejoice with those who rejoice, weep with those who weep.” (Romans 12:10-15).
