Summer of service in Brazil
October 1, 2009

Connelly teacher Claire Daniel and Academic Advisor Evangelina Savala '00 were among 30 young adults from Orange County who merged spirituality and service on a mission in Brazil. The mission, through the Sisters of the Company of Mary, called upon volunteers from across the globe to teach children dance, art and prayer. Ms. Daniel and Ms. Savala said staying with host families in Brazil was a humbling and life-changing experience. "I was overwhelmed by my host families," said Daniel. "Their love was unconditional, and it was truly through God."

"The dedicated and supportive teachers and faculty, the energetic and welcoming students, the openness and comfort of the campus, I knew Connelly was the school for me."
Katherine, Class of 2011

"I had a pretty remarkable experience at Connelly. I think it was the catalyst for my university acceptance. I owe the rest of my life decisions and career choice to that experience at Connelly." 
Sally Polk-Garcia '73
