Christian Service 2007-2008One of the integral parts of a student's religious experience at La Reina High School is her participation in the school's Christian service program. The program assists in the spiritual formation of the student as she develops the virtues of generosity and compassion through service to others. As Christians, we are called to serve as Jesus did and to do so freely and with joy! It is the school's hope that as a student embraces the call to serve, she shall have the opportunity to be enriched by helping others in need in the community. Please refer to the requirements paper that is given to each student by her religion teacher for ideas about service and for grade requirements. If there are any questions regarding the Christian service program, please contact Mrs. Sue Reyes. May the Lord continue to bless you.
