As a Eucharist-centered movement within the Roman Catholic Church, Life Teen leads teenagers and their families into a deeper relationship with Jesus Christ and His Church. With the Blessed Virgin Mary as our intercessor and guide, Life Teen seeks to unleash the fullness of the Sacramental power present within the young Church.
*11th Grade Ministry (previously “Confirmation Prep”) will now fall under the umbrella of Life Teen. Everything necessary to prepare for the reception of the Sacrament of Confirmation will take place at Life Nights. Additionally, Life Teen will be expanding to include 12th graders. It is our hope that a consistent communal event centered around the Eucharist, the “source and summit” of our faith, will create a much stronger environment for teens to encounter Christ through the beauty of the Catholic Church.

Mass & Life Night info
*Mass survey results are under review, and a decision will be made shortly! The Mass time will either remain at 6 PM or be moved up by an hour to 5 PM.
Following Mass, teens participate in a Life Night. This is a time for high schoolers to hang out together in community to discuss the topics that apply to their lives. We start shortly after Mass with dinner, and then we delve deeper into our Catholic faith and its everyday applications.
