Sursum Corda
A commitment to service and fun
History
Sursum Corda, meaning "Lift Up Our Hearts," trace their origins to Georgetown University's Sursum Corda organization. They were established at Loyola Marymount University in 1992 as a co-educational service organization rooted firmly in the Jesuit ideal of being "men and women for others." Sursum Corda emphasizes the importance of service and the fervent desire to serve others in the Greater Los Angeles Community.
Members of Sursum Corda are asked to complete at least 75% of their service requirement through off-campus service and 25% for on-campus service.
Membership in Sursum Corda is co-educational. Sursum Corda is the only service organization that does not have membership dues.
Sister Agnes Marie Schon, CSJ, served as the first moderator from 1992-1997. Father Donald Merrifield, SJ, served as the first chaplain.
Sursum Corda has a foundation and history connected to the Sisters of St. Joseph of Orange and the Jesuits.
