Lead Team– Tuesdays from 7pm-8:30pm. All High School Youth are invited to learn to become bold defenders of our Catholic faith on Tuesday evenings during LEAD Team. Together they will study how to explain the teachings of the Catholic Church. The first part of our beginning apologetics training series runs until Christmas break and youth can start with us at any time throughout the semester. We do request a one-time $20 fee for the purchase of resources. Financial assistance is available upon request. Contact us for more details.

Family Ministry Nights– First Fridays of November, December, January, and February from 6pm-8:30pm. All Families of youth in grades 7-12 are invited to join us on First Friday for a simple cheese pizza dinner followed by a family-friendly service project, Eucharistic Adoration, and confessions. Bring the whole family for a wonderful evening of fellowship, service, and faith. Cost is only $40 per family. RSVP through Sign-up Genius. Fee due to the Front Office by the last Wednesday of the month. This event is for families and therefore, young people may not attend without a parent.

Our youth ministry welcomes all young people of the proper age groups. They need not be Catholic or parishioners of St. Mary of Sorrows. Parents are encouraged to advise us if their teen needs reasonable and appropriate accommodation. All adult volunteers must be fully child protection compliant. A current Photo/Medical Release Form must be on file annually for activities held on-site at the parish. Parents may receive regular updates about our activities via Flocknote. Please contact us for more details.
