Our
Mission
Youth
Ministry works to foster the total
person and spiritual growth of each young
person. It seeks to draw junior high and
high school youth to responsible
participation in the life, mission, and
works of the faith community.
Young Adult
Ministry is a response to the need of
young adults, an invitation to share their
gifts with the larger community, and a
challenge to live Gospel values in the
world. Its purpose is to journey with young
adults enabling them to take responsibility
for their lives of faith, build community
within an intergenerational church and to
grow spiritually. |
