The group’s goal is to provide our teens with a forum for conversation on spiritual topics, life, and high school.  Participants enjoy a mix of discussions, fun activities, service projects, movies and other events throughout the year.

Sr. High Youth Group (Grades 9-12)
Once teens are confirmed the question can quickly become “Now what?”  Instead of an end to one’s religious education formation, we invite teens to view it as the beginning of a new period of spirituality and responsibility, the beginning of a maturing discipleship.  The classes may be over, but now the field work begins!
Here is a place where you can investigate the “Now what?” and explore how God is calling you to use your gifts of the Spirit.  The group is a combination of social time (aka fun!), service to those in need, theological discussions on movies, and a time to inquire about being a lector, eucharistic minister, sacristan, musician, teacher, etc.
And because social justice is an important part of our mission here at the Center, the youth group is an opportunity to engage with our ministries like our immigration and racial justice advocacy groups, our criminal justice reform group, our food programs like the Wednesday night supper club and our food pantry, and our care for creation ministry.
The Sr. High Youth Group will provide you with a safe and special opportunity to have important conversations about who you are and who you want to become. finding and using your voice in our church and beyond.
Below is last year’s schedule, to give you an idea.  Next year would be similar.
