Life Nights (Youth Group Meetings)
We meet weekly on Sundays in person and on campus in the Multipurpose Room at 6:00 PM . Dinner is always served and afterwards we either have a social night, a topic night or a service night. 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 Our theme for the year is REJOICE! We look forward to a year filled with opportunities to be Resilient, Encouraging, Joyful, Optimistic, Inspiring, Connected and Engaging. And as always we are looking out for the ways that we see God working in the world around us!
"When we feel far from God, guess who moved?" ...
On occasion we have guest speakers!
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. The Small Faith Groups are each unique extensions of the youth group meetings where you can go a little deeper and gain a new perspective on the topics being presented.
Retreats
We have one to two retreats each year 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 Catholic Heart Work Camp and this summer we will travel to Yakima Washington to participate! We will also be sponsoring our STAY (Serving Those Around You) Mission serving locally for the last week of June. Check out information for both of these service opportunities on our Mission Page!
