2023-2024 Youth Ministry Calendar
Building upon the foundations laid in our Children’s Ministry programs, we offer the youth of our parish (6th-12th graders) an inclusive space where they can begin to explore and articulate their own faith journey as well as build Christian community with their peers. We gather weekly on Sunday mornings. Youth are also engaged in mission outreach and fun activities.
