Sursum Corda is a co-educational social service organization at Loyola Marymount University.

While "Sursum," as it is often simply called by members, does service around LMU's campus, the organization's primary mission is service in the greater Los Angeles community at institutions such as [http://www.proyectopastoral.org/prog-GHP.htm Guadalupe Housing Project] , [http://www.goodshepherdshelter.org/Welcome.html Good Shepherd Shelter] , [http://www.lmu.edu/Page12406.aspx Underwings] , [http://www.lmu.edu/Page901.aspx El Espejo] , SAGE childcare in Nickerson Gardens and weekly Dockweiler beach cleanups.

Since 2005, Sursum Corda's Social Justice Squadron has organized an annual Day Famine, designed to raise awareness of international hunger among LMU students.

Prayer

Lord, lift up our eyes that we maySee those in need;Those who hunger for yourFriendship;Those who crave your light.

Lord lift up our ears that we mayHear those who call for help;Who speak your name.

Lord, lift up our arms that we mayCarry the downcast.Build the broken,Touch the lonely.

Lord, lift up our hearts that we maySee your faceHear your callDo your will.
