St. Pat's Hunger Center Service Program |
Once a month junior high students from Gesu School, Gesu alum who are working on service hours, and Gesu parishioners come together o show their commitment to the greater Cleveland community by working together to serve meals at St. Pat's Hunger Center. Their energy and enthusiasm is a powerful response to the Gospel message calling us to witness Christ in the world. |
|
| Altar Servers | Gesu boys and girls begin to train for this ministry in the spring of Grade 6. They then assist at Masses and other sacramental celebrations in grades 7 and 8. This dedicated group is coordinated by Mrs. Jane Lewis who schedules the servers for Masses, weddings and funerals. |

Schoolwide
Recycling
|
Everyone at Gesu is involved in schoolwide
recycling of cans, glass, plastic, and aluminum foil which
is picked up by the city. We have containers around the building that
are used by administration, faculty, staff, and students. We also make an
effort to recycle our classroom and office paper by taking advantage of
the new Cuyahoga County Solid Waste District program to collect all
kinds of paper from residents, schools, churches, and businesses. Bins
have been placed throughout the county as collection sites. See the link
below for the one nearest you.

Gesu students engage their
hands, minds, and hearts in the many service projects that are implemented each
year. The annual Hike for Hunger raises over $10,000 each year and students also
help others with the Thanksgiving
Food Drive, the Christmas Sharing project,
Rainbow Day, and the Easter Basket project that is conducted during Lent. |
