Youth Group

In addition to Word of Life and Chosen, all Middle School students will have the opportunity to come together monthly on the 2nd Sunday of each month after the 11:00 am Mass for Youth Group. These sessions will include lunch and use the Edge program from LifeTeen. The goal of Edge is to provide a safe and fun place for youth to find a solid Catholic community, get answers to their questions, and, most importantly, to experience Jesus in a profound and personal way.
