DSHA Campus Ministry

DSHA students went to the Holyland recently. Here are three of our CM/Angelaires singing in one of the acoustically perfect churches in Jerusalem. ❤️❤️❤️

‼️LAIRES BEING LAIRES IN ISRAEL‼️ Our stunning seniors Maggie, Genevieve, and Julia shared their stunning voices overseas in Israel! Enjoy their very holy rendition of “Peace, Peace” ☮️❤️🤞

“May you trust God that you are exactly where you are meant to be” - St. Theresa

Huge thanks to Mrs. Elrod and three of our amazing arts students (Lucy, Eliana, and Nati) for the amazing new mural in Campus Ministry! Enjoy the summer, dashers! We are preparing for your return already ❤️

These radiant forces of nature are graduating in just a couple moments. The Class of 2023 CM officers have given their time, heart, and creativity to make this year one full of prayer and fun. We are so grateful for you ❤️.

In the words of Sr. Grace Mary, may the Class of 2023 “Go forth into the world making a difference, in the love of the Divine Savior and under the protection of the Holy Angels.”

The new retreat coordinators received thier hats yesterday from the graduating retreat coordinators!

These young women make DSHA retreats so personal and meaningful for every class. The coordinators have countless hours of planning and preparation ahead of them but we all can’t wait for the freshmen to “Set Sail,” the sophomores to pray “Through the Turbulence,” the Juniors to “Be Present,” and for the seniors to “Say Yes”.

Powderpuff 2023 goes to the freshmen!!! It’s was a glorious day for our final $10,000 Together fundraiser. We raised $2000+ for the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society and had so much fun doing it.

The DSHA $10,000 Together project
is a year long collaboration between Campus Ministry, Student Council, and co-curriculars to raise $1000 for 10 organizations. Co-curriculars nominated organizations and the student body voted. Student groups MUST work with at least one other student organization in order to have a fundraiser. To date, DSHA student groups have raised $1000 for:

ABCD: After Breast Cancer Diagnosis
St. Bahkita House
Camp Hometown Heroes
Warm Hand Warm Hearts
Casa de Esperanza
SEA Literacy
PEARLS for Teen Girls
Best Buddies Wisconsin
MacCanon Brown Homeless Sanctuary

And now the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society. Thanks to everyone who worked so hard to build community within DSHA and support the goodness and kindness in the greater community. of the Divine

Welcome to our 23-24 Campus Ministry Officers! Each year, the graduating officers invite the new officers to a lunch to pass on their wisdom and advice. We are blessed with the BEST student ministers who give so much of their time, creativity, and love to make sure their classmates are fully engaged in their faith each year.

This year's officers have helped pack the chapel for Faith Friday Masses, worked with over a dozen co-curricular to raise money for our $10,000 Together Project, and have been a force of prayer and community in the building. We will miss them so much but we know they will be lights on their college campuses.

Praying with some of our 5-7th grade families this morning was such a joy! Good luck on your tours, future dasher!

DSHA seniors aren't the only dashers serving in the community this week. Sophomores and juniors helped with vision screenings at the amazing St. Adalbert School and delivered over 100 birthday cake bags to Tosa Cares today.

Our Salvatorian mission calls us to "make known the Goodness and Kindness of Jesus". Thank you for living our mission every day dashers!

Vocare 2023 has just a couple of days left but its impact will last a lifetime.

Vocare is Divine Savior Holy Angels High School's two-week service immersion that calls forth the seniors to give of their time and talents in service of the community and faith. 173 seniors are serving in over 50 schools, elderly care facilities, special needs day centers, and community organizations.

On Sunday, seniors gathered to reflect on their first week and had Mass with parents in the Mother of Our Savior chapel. The experiences and relationships they are making are powerful catalysts for who they are becoming. We can't wait until they come back to school and share their experiences with the student body.

While our seniors are serving in the community on Vocare, we have some special activities for the underclasswomen. Today, theology classes were able to walk the prayer labyrinth. A prayer labyrinth is an ancient spiritual practice that engages our bodies and our spirits. It looks like a maze but has only one wandering path. We are invited to not worry so much about the destination, but to unite ourselves with God and let Him lead.

Students reflected on the human experience of Jesus walking in the desert before his temptation. This meditation mirrors our own lives in so many ways. God is always greater than our wanderings and in the end, everything leads back to Him.

Special thanks to Sarah Winkler and St. Mary's Visitation for the use of their Labyrinth.
