Solidarity At The Border
Immigration Trip
November 6-10, 2024

Hosted by the Archdiocesan Office of Peace & Justice, our Youth Ministry students will join other Catholics from St. Louis to visit our country’s southern border and surrounding areas, giving them an opportunity to learn about the complex issues facing migrants and their families. The trip will conclude with mass on the US-Mexico border uniting us in our one faith.

Some FAQ’s: 

1. How many days of school do I have to miss?
   • We will leave Wednesday afternoon and return on Sunday night, so you will miss two days of school (Thursday and Friday). 
2. Will I have time/be able to do my homework?
   • Yes! The bus rides are long, so you’ll have plenty of time to complete any homework or make-up work necessary! There will also be some downtime at our hotels. 
3. How much does the trip cost?
   • The Border Trip is $350. Why so much? This covers hotels, bus rides, tickets to any museums/encounters, and food!
     If you would like to come but cannot afford the cost, the Archdiocese does offer limited scholarships. Reach out to Sarah Kate Heyman at youthmin@stmargaretstl.org as soon as possible to apply for a scholarship!
4. Can I bring a friend who doesn’t attend SMOS?
   • Yes! All are welcome!
