The mission of this group is to further raise awareness of the important teachings within the Catholic Church by organizing, outside of the cafeteria 2-3 times per month, an open floor for anyone within the student body to walk up and share their opinions or refute the statement we create. These statements will be created by meetings that we will hold during the month to create and prepare for these events. An example of a potential question would be, “Faith should be the most important priority in every single person's life.” This is not a political debate team but rather focused on having conversations about Catholic and life topics with people who have different viewpoints, and to teach people how to have conversations with others when they may disagree.
