UOC High School Mission Trip

The High School Student Mission Trip is a ministry of the
UkrainianOrthodox Church of the USA. We hope to bring aid
and comfort tothose in need through out our country. It is
easy to turn a blindeye to those reaching out a hand for help
in our local communities. By our actions, we hope to show
the face of Christ to these people in need and all we come in
contact with and by doing so reaffirm the Holy Orthodox
Faith in an Orthodox Service Community. We pray that by
offering daily prayer services, as well as our love and works,
that we will bring not only ourselves but all involved closer to
Christ our God.

Emmaus House was established in the
1960’s. It is a not-for-profit organization that
serves the poor in Harlem and Manhatten.
While at Emmaus House our Team may be
involved in the following:
* Working with and speaking to the
individuals who come to Emmaus
* Going into the community to serve meals
* Aiding in any renovations to the Emmaus
House Building

Founded and led by Fr. David Kirk, an
Orthodox Christian priest, the organization
has taken a unique approach to assisting
those in need. Father David fell asleep in the
Lord in May of 2007. Since that time the
Board of Directors have worked tirelessly to
keep the Emmaus ministry alive. They are
currently working on revitalization
campaign—of which we will be a part!
