Faith & Service

Faith & Service

Campus ministry at Helias Catholic High School strives to support the faith formation of the students, staff and school community by providing opportunities which lead to a deeper awareness of the message of God’s love and opportunities for worship, supporting the formation of a community of faith, and the promotion of service as a way of life.

Mass

  • Mass is offered in St. Pius X Chapel at 7:20 a.m. Tuesdays through Fridays and at 3:15 p.m. Wednesday.
  • All School Masses are held monthly.

Adoration and Reconciliation

  • Eucharistic Adoration is offered at least once a semester.
  • An All School Day of Reconciliation is offered in Advent and Lent.

Service

  • Every student is required to complete 50 hours of service by the end of first semester senior year. Hours completed must be turned in at the end of each academic year.
  • Service hours can begin after eighth-grade graduation.
  • Students use MobileServe to record service hours. This database can be accessed via app or website, and login information will be given once students are registered.
  • For service hours to be approved, hours must be verified in one of the following ways:
      • Email verification on MobileServe.
      • Two forms of verification on MobileServe besides email verification.
      • Service hours form on the Helias Catholic website.
  • All service is to be completed at nonprofit agencies. This includes schools and churches.
  • Any student who completes more than 100 hours in one year or 500 hours over four years of high school will receive special recognition.

Retreats
