YOUTH MINISTRY
Our Youth Program focuses on developing the

The goals of the program for The Junior Youth Group and The High School Youth Group are
to empower teens to live as disciples of Jesus Christ in our world today, to draw teens to responsible participation in the life, mission and work of the Catholic faith community, as well as, to foster the total personal and spiritual growth of each teen.
A variety of programs encourage involvement in parish and youth liturgies, the
MacKenzie Trek retreat program, involvement in outreach and service activities for the needy on local, inner city and foreign mission levels, participation in national and regional conferences, diocesan events, social activities, and much more.

RCIA
Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults is a process through which unbaptized adults are initiated into the Catholic Church, and those baptized in another Christian tradition are received into full communion of the church. Parishioners serve as catechists, sponsors and hospitality ministers. They form a team, which is responsible, along with the pastor and associate pastor, for the catechesis and spiritual direction of men and women seeking full membership in the Catholic Church.
