A Parish Youth Group Experience!

The youth have combined for 2008-2009 into one parish youth group. We will

be meeting every week – but the schedule is one that changes, so look for a printed

schedule each month in the News Letter, or pick one up at youth group. We will do

several mission projects, lessons, and plan and lead worship once in awhile.

The youth remain very active and alive! Anyone in 5th – 12th grade is welcomed!





CONFIRMATION BEGINS

There are currently 8 youth in the 2008-09 confirmation class! We meet on Wednesday afternoons from 5:30 -7. This year’s class will be another exceptional one!
