Why Complete Service?
The goal of Christ the King School’s Christian Service Hour program is to ensure that students are seeking to serve the community, the world at large, and to see Christ in all people.
Christian service is defined as that which takes us beyond a narrow concern for ourselves and moves us to promote the common good and to uphold the human dignity of every person. In the end, we are looking to serve those that are poor, vulnerable, or marginalized in the world around us. -
