Our Lady of the Angels Immersion Trip

The first Catholic-themed immersion trip at Hope College was an initiative of the Saint Benedict Forum and was generously co-sponsored by Hope College's Campus Ministries and Union of Catholic Students as well as Holland, Michigan's St. Francis De Sales Catholic Church.

The group lived with and worked alongside the Franciscans of the Eucharist who run the Mission of Our Lady of the Angels.
