All current high school students are invited to join the St. John-St. Paul Youth Ministry team and NPH USA for an immersion and service trip to NPH Dominican Republic this summer, August 15 – 21, 2019.

This will be an unforgettable opportunity to experience the work of NPH firsthand, meet the amazing children who live in the NPH Dominican Republic home and take part in a service project which will have a lasting impact on the community there. This trip is offered to current high school students and places are limited.  To find out more or to sign up :
