Casey Rhines of Livonia Travels to Cincinnati for Service

2014 Nov 19

Casey Rhines, a sophmore seven-year BS/DDS major at University of Detroit Mercy, heads to Cincinnati to participate in the schools Alternative Winter Break program. From Dec. 18-23 students will build community, reflect, and share work with communities affected by injustice. These experiences include manual labor, cultural learning, relationship building, and daily prayer and reflection. Participants exemplify the Jesuit education goal, being "men and women for others" and the Mercy tradition of "compassionate service to those in need," both part of UDM's mission as an institution of learning.
