Campus Ministry Focus in October: Hunger Awareness
Campus Ministry at CBA was in full tilt during the month of October as it recognized hunger awareness month. Students in a variety of Campus Ministry groups discovered projects around Syracuse and within their own campus to help feed the hungry, educate students, and bring awareness to one of the worlds most widespread problems.
Lasallian Youth and Student Senate orchestrated CBAs annual participation in Crop Walk. In all, over 20 volunteers walked in downtown Syracuse on October 16th, while dozens more walked in other locations to raise awareness about the issue of hunger around Central New York.
Social Justice Peer Ministers presented to 7th and 8th grade religion classes on the reality of hunger in our community and around the world and how it affects the lives of millions, especially children.
Lasallian Youth and Jr. High Lasallians combined efforts to prepare a meal for the needy at the Samaritan Center in downtown Syracuse. Students made sandwiches at school and picked apples at Beak & Skiff to make a nutritious meal for those who need it most.
