Deisi Cuate is raising money for Sheil Mission Trip - Arizona & Mexico Border


Fundraising Amount=$140.00 ; Goal=$1,000.00
Donate Now

As a small faith community missioned from Sheil, we look to build relationships with the people at the border, with those who serve them, and with one another. We intend to look, listen and engage the real situation of those living at the border, as well as those seeking to cross the border. In our daily reflections, we will reflect on the principles of Catholic Social Teaching and share how the experience is challenging and encouraging our growth in faith. We will seek to love those that we meet and love one another in Christ. This is a "learning-service trip" we will learn from the people that we meet and with whom we collaborate. We will be changed by our time at the border, and hopefully will be Catholics with an enlivened faith upon our return.

We ask our sponsors to support us in prayer and if possible, by making a donation.

 


Sheil Catholic Center, Northwestern University, mission trip to the border of Arizona and Mexico, December 14-21, 2019
 

Hello, 

My name is Deisi. I am a first-generation (doctoral) student going on a mission trip with the Sheil Catholic Center to the border of Arizona and Mexico. 

This trip will be both a personal and professional eye-opening experience for me. I come from a family of immigrants, but have never set foot at the U.S.-Mexico border. Additionally, my dissertation investigates geographic and figurative borders, and how these spaces reconfigure identities in the U.S. 

Please help me raise money to help the families we will be working with and to help realize this trip! Anything you can donate will be much appreciated. 

Thank you and God Bless!
