Youth Ministry

Our Youth Group offers an opportunity for youth grades 7-12 to gather for fun, service, and support of one another in faith.

Typically we meet twice a month on Sunday from 6:30-8:30 PM. See the Youth Newsletter for more details.  Youth Advisors are comprised of youth, adults, the Vicar and Pastor Sinibaldo, who plan and lead activities.

Our new Youth Room will expand our vibrancy for ministry to youth, children and families.
