Mary Maidment: Service

Hi! My name is Mary Maidment and I am from Portland, Oregon. I am studying neuroscience with a minor in psychology on the pre-med track. On campus, I work as an events assistant and as an Ambassador, frequently giving tours. When I have free time, I love to be outside hiking, shopping, intramural sports, workout classes, and spending time with friends. This year, my team won our softball and volleyball intramural championships!! I have been busy watching the new Secret Lives of Mormon Wives season and just finished Scandal. What drew me to Setons was the Service pillar. Since I was young, my family has made an effort to be actively involved in different forms of service in our community. We spent time at our church, local food bank, community garden, and my favorite was making clothing bags for children in need. I loved picking outfits and giving toys, games, and other activities.

Helen Rago - Sisterhood

    Hi! My name is Helen Rago and I am from Danville, California (40 minutes from San Fransisco)! I am a Public Relations major with a minor in Italian! I love spending time with my family and friends, going for walks, watching movies, and traveling! I recently rewatched the movie Little Miss Sunshine which is my favorite movie of all time. I am so thankful for all of the friendships that have grown from my time in Setons so far. :)
                             
    The pillar I chose to talk about is sisterhood. I joined Setons looking to make new friends, and I can confidently say that I have made so many amazing friends along the way already! Sisterhood is shown throughout Setons in multiple different ways. One way that I have grown in my sisterhood is through weekly service with my small group. As we got to know the kids and staff at One Heart Spokane, we fostered new relationships with them while also strengthening our relationships within the small group! Our socials definitely strengthen sisterhood as well. However, I feel the most connected to my sisters at the weekly meetings within the first ten minutes when we all catch up with each other on how our week has gone. The spirits are always high, and we are all there to support one another. I love Setons so much, and I am so thankful to be a part of this organization!
