Parish Youth Groups
The youth of our parish are not only the church of the future; they are also an important part of our church today. Just as we have parish organizations for women, men, seniors, families, and young adults at our church, all of us can benefit from having youth groups in our parish community as well. In addition to a high school youth group, there would be a separate junior high youth group as well. Both youth groups would be led by adult moderators, along with officers selected from among the youth group members themselves. Here are the four spiritual pillars of youth ministry for our parish youth groups.
Prayer
In addition to group attendance at various Sunday Masses, other prayer experiences are offered throughout the year, as planned by our youth.
Examples: serving in liturgical roles at Mass, attending diocesan and national spiritual conferences that are designed for youth groups.
Fellowship
Social events are an important part of forging good Christian friendships among our parish youth, as well as providing time for wholesome fun.
Examples: participating in diocesan and inter-parish events, field trips, and other social excursions planned by the youth group participants.
Service
Involvement in parish life, especially with our charitable endeavors, helps our youth to be of service to others, both within and beyond our parish.
Examples: helping out with monthly hospitality Sundays, assisting with parish charitable drives, youth work camps, and other service activities.
Learning
Especially after receiving the holy sacrament of Confirmation, various inspirational learning experiences are also provided throughout the year.
Examples: assisting with the annual confirmation retreat, and attending special youth-centered presentations about our Catholic Christian faith.
