Service Opportunities
The JOY motto at Wesleyan is the source of our identity in service. In service, we focus on Others and Omicron. From the Greek letter O, Omicron is an open society inviting the entire Wesleyan family to serve others gladly.
In light of the example of Jesus Christ, the mission of the Omicron Service Society is to encourage discipleship through the practice of service.

Providing stability and resources for families everywhereHelping a sick child fight their illness takes a big enough emotional toll on a family. Adding a financial strain can make it all almost too much to bear.

Team Omicron
Team Omicron is the high school service team. Many service opportunities offered by the Omicron Service Society are once a year events, but students who join Team Omicron serve 3-4 times a week from November to January.
Members return weekly to familiar faces and learn more about the ongoing needs of both people and agencies through their committed service.
The team also learns service leadership through planning school-wide and high school service events. Students get to shape their experience and lead their peers while learning great project management skills through the events they plan.
