Baltimore Appalachia Workcamp
Join CBNB Members and Guests to hear from our speaker, Joe Slovick, who will be sharing his inspiring journey of Mission Work in Appalachia.
In 1989, Joe joined a multi parish workcamp trip to Preston County, WV as a young adult through his involvement with St. Margaret youth group. Because of that faith-filled event, this annual trip has become the single most important element of his outward practice of Catholic faith.
Through the years, the Baltimore Appalachia Workcamp expanded from just one trip in West Virginia to include a similar immersion trip to serve in and around Baltimore City. Prior to COVID, there were approximately 150 participants per year between the two trips with an annual budget around $50,000. The program pulls high school students from nearly every Catholic school and many parishes in the Archdiocese. Since COVID, the program is slowly working its numbers back to what will hopefully be around 90 participants in West Virginia and 60 in Baltimore some day soon.
Joe will discuss what participants experience over the course of the week and the differences, both small and large, that are made in the lives of real people. He will also discuss how they are able to provide the youth of the Archdiocese of Baltimore a new perspective into a world very different than their normal life.
