T eens Come: If you are wondering what our youth ministry is all about, if you want to get more involved, if you want to strengthen your relationship with Christ, come join us. Youth ministry is a place to be with your friends, and learn more about your faith. We can experience Christ's power and love through praise, prayer and sharing the word of God in music and Scripture at Mass.

All high school teens are welcome. Bring a friend!
We start to gather at 4:30 p.m. in St. Mary's Church. Mass begins at 5:00 p.m.. Mass will be followed by "Life Night". At Life Night we'll learn about our faith, and have some fun too! We are looking forward to meeting you, and hope to see you there!
