Inspired by the words of Mother Teresa of Calcutta \u2014 \u201cFaith in action is love,
<\/strong>and love in action is service.\u201d \u2014<\/strong> Iskali invites young people to live
their faith through acts of compassion and service.<\/span><\/p>

Each month, members of our community come together to serve those
most in need. Through these experiences, young adults learn that faith
is not only something we believe, but something we live\u2014through
generosity, solidarity, and love for others.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

As part of the Iskali community, we recognize the many blessings we have received through the kindness and generosity of others. In response, we believe we are called to give back and serve those most in need within our communities and beyond.<\/p>

With St. Teresa of Calcutta as our patron<\/strong> for this mission, we strive to follow her example of humble service and compassion.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

Service is not simply an activity\u2014it is a way of
living the Gospel and building a community
