Campus Ministry
Cristo Rey St. Martin College Prep invites our students to grow in their faith journey with God. Through our Campus Ministry program, we listen to their needs and help them share their gifts with both their school and the world. As part of our Catholic identity, we respect and appreciate the unique gifts and various religious traditions that reflect the make-up of our students and staff.
Becoming people for others is a hallmark of the CRSM experience. CRSM does not have required service hours, yet 100% of students volunteer throughout their 4 years here.
Students can grow in their faith journey through:
RETREATS, where they:
- Participate in required grade-level retreats.
- Attend and help lead optional retreats.
- Build and celebrate community.
- Learn more about themselves and their growth through their high school years.
- Reflect and grow in their spiritual lives.
PRAYER, as they:
- Lead the daily prayer via the school intercom.
- Assist with Masses and prayer services.
- Join and help lead optional prayer vigils at the Broadview Detention Facility.
JUSTICE AND SERVICE, as they:
- Partake in optional after school and weekend volunteering.
- Have the option to travel to different parts of the Country through immersion trips.
- Give through our Christmas for Others and Lenten Campaign
- Take part in events led by Oportunidades Para Todos, our student-led Justice Immigration Group.
