Meet new friends! Catch the tempo of Trinity! Explore ways that faith and service feed each other! Engage the wider San Antonio community!

WHEN: Sunday to Thursday before New Student Orientation (August 18-22, 2024)

WHERE: Around San Antonio

WHAT: The San Antonio Plunge is a five-day service event sponsored by Trinity's Chapel and Chapel Fellowships. After moving your belongings into your campus room, we will spend our days involved in various service opportunities around the city and our nights in fellowship, reflection, worship, and fun! Our hope is that you will become familiar with what it means to be a member of the San Antonio community for these next four years while also building community and getting your Trinity journey started off in a great way.

This program is designed to be an immersion experience, so expect that most of our time will be spent together, including being out in service during the days and sharing fellowship, small groups, prayer, and meals together in the evening.
