Service Reflection Questions
(Bring this form with you to the service event to be signed by the supervisor.)
At St. John’s, we want all Candidates to have participated in 2 service events. These two service events can be done with our parish or another agency. We do not require a specific number of hours.
We encourage students to participate in the liturgy at St. John. You are encouraged to assist with the mass in one of these ways:
Altar Server
Lector
Eucharistic Minister
These will count as an experience of service.
A service event might be helping at Share-A-Lunch or a nursing home. If the Candidate is already serving as an Altar Attendant, Eucharistic Minister, or in some other position frequently, they only need to do 1 other experience of service.
After completing service events, candidates must fill out a questionnaire describing service performed as well as how the service impacted them. The form can be found at the top of this section.
Examples of Service:
Nursery Worker (at church); Soup Kitchen; Our Daily Bread; Share-A-Lunch; Reach Out Lakota; Project Restore; Scouting Service Projects; Catechist Aide (PSR, etc.); Helping Elderly Neighbors; Service / Volunteer opportunities at your school; Warm Welcomes
NOTE: Doing household chores or being paid to help a neighbor is not service! If you have any questions about service please contact Josh Plandowski at jplandowski@stjohnwc.org or 777-6433 ext. 114
St. John Youth Ministry will provide many service opportunities (at least 1 per month) that you are invited to attend. You will receive alerts to upcoming service events you can participate in.
