Youth Ministry
**Open to students in Grades 8–12**
Our Mission: To build a Christ-centered community where teenagers encounter Jesus, grow as His disciples, and deepen their faith through fellowship with teens their age, prayer together, participation in Liturgical traditions, and service to the poor. Inspired by the LifeTeen model, our Youth Ministry provides an engaging and welcoming community where teens can build authentic friendships, encourage one another in the faith, grow in virtue, participate fully in the life of the Church, and become joyful missionary disciples.
Friends of teens are welcome, no matter their faith background!
Parents of visiting teens who are not parish members and parents of teens who are not enrolled in Religious Education this year must complete registration before attending events. Parents of 8th and 9th graders enrolled in Religious Education classes for the 2026–2027 year do not need to complete this additional registration.
