What makes Notre Dame Vision unique among faith-based summer programs for high school students is the invitation to theological depth offered to young people as they are accompanied by undergraduate Mentors who receive robust theological and pastoral formation for their ministry.

These undergraduate Mentors cultivate a personal, authentic, and theologically sound small group experience for the high school participants as they come to know one another through the week as they share meals, pray, and recreate together while enjoying the beautiful campus of Notre Dame.

With this foundation, the Mentors and participants build the trust that is necessary to more openly and honestly explore the deeper questions of God’s call in their lives while listening to keynote speakers, participating in the sacraments, and building community throughout the week.

Grounded in the practices of prayer and reflection encountered at Vision, participants are sent forth fueled by the flame of God’s love to share their gifts with the world.

RISE AGAINST HUNGER 2023

Our STM Youth Group joined forces with other area youth groups in the FIGHT AGAINST HUNGER! We had over 100 volunteers package a little over 10,000 meals in just a few short hours. WOW is right! These groups are putting the mission into action and doing the hard work to make an impact on the lives of others!

Kentucky Service Trip 2023

The Youth Group from St. Thomas More recently helped rebuild people's lives in the Appalachian Mountains of Kentucky. This was a great opportunity to live out the Gospel message to help the poor.

Rebuilding people's homes rebuilds people's lives that rebuilds your strength in the Lord!
