“Have the courage to be truly happy!” Pope Francis
As youth experience life, their curiosity and desire for meaning challenges us to meet youth where they are. Jesus invites us: “YOU give them something to eat.” (Luke 9:12-17) We respond by creating space for teenagers and young adults to explore and grow in their faith journey. Activities include:- Alpha for Youth – online experience
- Youth Rally – virtual and in person gatherings
- Steubenville Atlantic – virtual and in-person gatherings
- Social Justice Activities – Food Bank; Local Charities
- Information and Resources for parish youth workers
- Support of parish initiatives
