A total of 15 high school teens, one dad, one seminarian, and Kevin Sullivan spent the week of July 26 at St. Cecilia's in the Wisconsin Dells living and serving with the diocesan program called Love Begins Here. LBH, in its eighth summer hosts "local" mission trips based upon Blessed Mother Theresa's plea to serve our neighbors in need. Teens have shared that: "LBH is the best week of summer." It is amazing to see how much spiritual growth can happen in less than a week when we are intentional in all that we do.
The following week, nine middle school students, one mom, and Kevin Sullivan participated in LBH at All Saints Parish in Berlin, WI. Again, the young people had a blast while growing closer to the Lord through sacraments and service.
