Notre Dame students help out on game night at Angels’ Place homes.
Notre Dame's Justice Service Awareness Committee sponsored by Campus Ministry hosted a "game night" at two Angels’ Place homes last week. A number of Notre Dame girls with parent chaperones visited a women's home and enjoyed an evening with residents playing games. At the same time, a group of high school boys from NDP engaged in an evening of fun games at a neighboring men's home.
The students participating in this service experience took on full leadership for planning and implementing all activities, including bringing a dessert to share. A fun time was had by all, according to Campus Minister Della Lawrence.
