In an April 22, 2016 email from Amy Rowland, Program Coordinator for Community Service in the Office of Campus Ministry, at The Catholic University of America, she thanked the friars of Our Lady of the Angels Province for the “generous grant which helped to fund our trips (Kingston, Jamaica and Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic) this year. We were able to send about 65 students on four different trips. So far, we’ve received wonderful feedback – our students truly are transformed by their time serving the poor and getting to know Christ through others.”

Unmitigated Happiness
