Service is at the very heart of the Christian life. Our pursuit of holiness here at Notre Dame Prep draws us out of focusing on ourselves and into the other-centered love of Jesus. We serve, not to check a box or pad a resumé. We serve because that is what disciples do.
We have removed the minimum hours requirements for the four areas of service.
