Mission Education 2019

"SACRED BRIDGES" was the theme of the 2019 Mission Education conference; it refers to the bridges that are built between cultures, peoples and religions. Held approximately every three years, Mission Education is a time for employees and other collaborators in SCJ ministry to learn about Fr. Leo John Dehon, founder of the Priests of the Sacred Heart, as well as the congregation that carries on his dreams. It is also a time for co-workers across the country to get to know one another and learn how they are a part of the worldwide mission of the Priests of the Sacred Heart. This year's Mission Ed was hosted by St. Joseph's Indian School in Chamberlain, SD.
