About the Programs
During
their high school and college years, teens and young adults often search for
information about their faith. The Saint Meinrad “One Bread, One Cup” summer
conferences and College Ministerial Internship Program offer a chance for them
to deepen their faith and solidify their identity as Catholics.
'One Bread, One Cup' Conferences Each summer, hundreds of high school youth and their campus or youth ministers come to Saint Meinrad to learn more about their faith and try out ministries they can use in their home parishes. They learn to be lectors, cantors, sacristans, extraordinary ministers of Holy Communion and more.
College Ministerial Internship Program Helping to guide these groups through the process are more than 20 college
interns, from across the country, who come to Saint Meinrad each summer. These
young adults are taught by monks and faculty of Saint Meinrad School of Theology
during a six-week program that strengthens their spiritual foundation and
prepares them to be future leaders for the Church.
Support the Youth Endowment
These programs were begun with a generous grant from Lilly Endowment, Inc. Now,
Saint Meinrad is building an endowment to secure their future once the grant
expires. This endowment will keep the costs of these programs affordable.
By supporting this endowment, you will be giving young Catholics the opportunity
to learn more about their faith and their role as liturgical leaders. Give now
to the youth endowment by using our secure online giving form. Choose “Youth Endowment” under the
"Use My Gift For" section of the form.
If you would like to further discuss a gift to the Youth endowment, please
contact Mike Ziemianski at mziemianski@saintmeinrad.edu
or (800) 682-0988.
