SUS College Youth Mission

College Youth Mission is our mission outreach arm. In partnership with HOPE and OCCM, the SUS Diocese College Youth Mission plans an annual mission trip where youth participate in ministry efforts and bring many encouragements from this ministry.

Service Trip to Egypt

Our service trip to Egypt will be dedicated to various ministries in Alexandria, Anaphora, and Upper Egypt. This year, we will focus on special needs ministries, educational programs, and pastoral work in the villages. We will visit holy and ancient sites and monasteries, immersing ourselves in our Coptic roots, and enjoy the culture at some hangout spots!

There are 20 spots available for this trip.
Interested participants must register online and pay the 50% deposit ($425) to secure a spot.
If you choose to participate in the group airfare reservations from a major city (e.g., MCO, TPA, FLL, MIA, ATL, BNA, DFW, IAH, PHX), a $100 deposit is required. There is a separate group travel form that you can complete after you complete your mission registration form. If the group airfare reservations do not work out, the $100 deposit will be refunded to you. Please decide on this step early on and whether you want to stay longer after the trip (some airlines allow 'deviation', meaning you can depart earlier and/or return later). Group airfares are best booked three months in advance to guarantee an economical airfare.
