Our story

Faith takes us
further.

A journey from Tampa to Peru that puts Tampa Catholic’s values of truth, charity, and service into motion.

Why we go

A calling to serve, not simply to visit.

The Peru Mission Trip is an opportunity for students to learn through service, build relationships, and experience what community really means.

The annual trip takes Tampa Catholic students to Jicamarca, in the Lima area, to work alongside neighbors in need. The work is practical — carrying materials, raising walls, and sharing time with children — and it is rooted in the school's commitment to Christian service.

Students return with a deeper understanding of the people they have met, the work they have shared, and the value of putting faith into action.

A continuing commitment

The journey has many parts.

Service begins with a willingness to show up — and continues through the relationships formed along the way.

01

Listen & Learn

Meet families, learn about the community, and approach every relationship with humility and curiosity.

02

Work Together

Bring energy and compassion to hands-on construction and time spent with local children and partners.

03

Carry It Forward

Keep the spirit of service alive through prayer, generosity, and continued community support at home.

Grounded in community

Our partners make the mission possible.

The 2026 students spent time hearing how the Christian Brothers have served the community over the years. They also visited Fe y Alegría, the school Tampa Catholic helps support through weekly mission collections.

At Fe y Alegría, students connected with the pastoral team, played games, and planted a tree — a symbol of a relationship that continues between visits.
