Service & Ministry
Guided by the Sacred Heart Goal of fostering “an active faith in God,” Woodlands Academy encourages students both to reflect individually and to contribute their time and many talents to our community’s liturgies, prayer services, and student retreats.
Campus Ministry
Woodlands Campus Ministry Team is composed of students from all grade levels and many faith traditions. Team members meet weekly to envision, write, and implement diverse liturgical celebrations for the school community.
Students serve as leaders of prayer, readers, speakers, musicians, and Eucharistic Ministers. Great care is taken to make all celebrations creative, meaningful, and memorable experiences for the Woodlands community.
Service Program
The Woodlands Academy Service Program promotes Sacred Heart Goal III, “a social awareness that impels to action.” Freshmen are required to do 10 hours of service during their first year. Sophomores, juniors, and seniors are required to do 20 hours of service per year.
Over four years, students are required to reflect on their experiences and complete 20 of their hours in an area of concentration that is meaningful to them. This area of concentration will drive their Senior Capstone Service Project. Additionally, each year, all Woodlands students, faculty, and staff come together for a Day of Service.
Woodlands has helped me to realize that the world is so big, and that opportunities to make a difference are endless.Denym K.Class of 2025
