Works of Mercy

Service at JPG is not treated as an extracurricular requirement but as a way of learning how to love others concretely. Works of Mercy days place students in direct contact with the needs of their neighbors, forming habits of generosity, humility, and attentiveness to human dignity. By engaging the realities of suffering, poverty, and isolation, students are invited to move beyond comfort and convenience, discovering that authentic service transforms both those who receive and those who give.
