LIFE TEEN PROGRAMS 2021-2022
 
Fellowship. Faith Formation. Adoration. Service
 
 
Life Teen Mass
 
The Mass is the source and summit of our Catholic life.  St. Padre Pio said, "It would be easier for the world to survive without the sun than without the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass."  We invite all youth and their families to join us Sunday evenings at 5:30pm for our Life Teen Mass.  
 
Get Involved!  We need ushers, readers, musicians, altar servers, Eucharistic ministers, and greeters to help on Sunday evenings. 

Would you like to be involved in the Mass?  If so, please CLICK HERE.
 

Sunday Life Teen Nights

On Sunday evenings, high school youth grades 9-12 join us for the 5:30pm Life Teen Mass and then head downstairs for Life Teen nights which include dinner, fellowship, faith formation, and FUN! 
 
CONFIRMATION: Those who are preparing to receive their Confirmation will stay together and focus on building their understanding of the faith as they prepare to receive the Sacrament of Confirmation. 
 
RELENTLESS: After dinner on Sundays, those who have already received their Confirmation join Relentless.  Relentless is a dynamic upper classmen program that helps the youth apply their faith to their high school lives.  They are taught ways to allow the Holy Spirit to deepen their faith and be channels of truth, goodness, and beauty in the world. 
 
PRAYER: The evening ends with a time of prayer, often before the Blessed Sacrament, where youth can unite themselves with Christ before going back out into the world!
 
 
On Wednesday nights, those preparing for Confirmation for this year can join us from 6:30pm to 7:45pm for faith formation, fellowship, and time of prayer. 


The Empower Leadership Program
 
The Empower Leadership Program was designed to give youth who have received their Confirmation to witness to their faith in a tangible, meaningful way, right in their own parish. 
 
Life Teen Retreats

We will offer four retreats during the 2021-2022 school year.  All high school youth are welcome.  Please note one retreat is for Relentless only (for those who have already made their Confirmation). 

Confirmation candidates MUST attend one of the three retreats open to all high school youth.
