Peer Ministry teaches students how to be "guardian angels" – servant messengers of Jesus who bring Joy, Enthusiasm, Service, Unity and Solace to Aquinas. This is accomplished by skills training in small group facilitation, communication skills, conflict resolution, and peer mediation and counseling. Peer Ministers also serve Aquinas by participating in and planning school liturgies, prayer services, morning prayer over the PA system, communion services, retreats for sophomores, juniors and seniors, collecting donations for missions and Thanksgiving food baskets, and a variety of prayer and reflection experiences that build community within the class and the school.
Peer Ministers build lifelong bonds between one another and God.
