George Mason University


George Mason University - Catholic Campus Ministry - Alternate Spring Break where? St Mary's and Missions in Above Rocks, but of course! Under the direction of Catherine Horan, Assoc. Campus Minister, a group of fourteen young adults set aside the beaches of Florida or Cancun for a week in the hills of Above Rocks. Each day the students ran our Brain Camp in the mornings and then assisted with all the ministries of the mission each afternoon, with a significant ministry of presence at Rock Hall All Age. Each day these committed young adults spent time in prayer and reflection in addition to their daily ministry and chores.

Some may ask: What's the connection with George Mason? Catherine Horan's sister is a novice with the Franciscan Sisters of the Eucharist (Meriden, CT). Catherine's connection with the FSE Community drove her to ask: Would you be able to host us? So here they are. And they have been a great group!
