Life Nights (Youth Group Meetings)
We meet weekly on Sundays Via Zoom. Times will vary but they are usually in the evenngs. We have a theme for the year that guides our topics on faith, life, and issues relevant to high schoolers. This year's theme is "HOPE" and we will focus on being connected in these crazy times talk frankly about big questions like how to always remember to be faithful and hear God and see God in our daily lives!
"When we feel far from God, guess who moved?" ...
We start with a check in for the week as a group and then we turn to the topic of the night.
Our topics vary from serious to fun. We have game nights and watch videos. We will have guest speakers and we will also offer service opportunities on varying levels.
Bring your friends any time and join us for a fun and relevant look into our faith!
Small Faith Groups
We meet in Small Faith Communities once a month, typically on Sunday evenings. This year due to our unusual circumstances, Small Group Meetings may be happening on all different nights of the week and Room 11 is available for all group leaders to reserve, once in person ministry is allowed. The Small Faith Groups are each unique extensions of the youth group meetings where you can go a little deeper and take a new perspective on the topics being presented.
Retreats
We have one to two retreats each year for any and all high school students are welcome to join in the fun, regardless of whether they participate regularly in the youth ministry or not. Check out the retreat page for information on upcoming retreats.
Mission Trip
Each year, teens participate in a Mission Trip with a Catholic organization called Young Neighbors In Action. There are plans to go to Tacoma, Washington next summer with a potential second trip to San Diego.......
