Welcome to Holy Spirit's Youth Ministry!
Mission Statement: To give youth a venue to meet other Christian teens/preteens in a safe, supervised and positive environment. We want to help kids grow in their love and understanding of our Catholic faith….and to have fun doing it!
**REGISTRATION FOR THE 2025-2026 SCHOOL YEAR IS OPEN!**
Youth Group & Middle School Ministry: If you're interested in meeting other like-minded youth and teens, expanding your faith and having fun in the process, please consider joining one of our youth groups - High School Youth Group (YG) or Middle School Ministry (MSM) for 6th-8th graders. We meet monthly for group socials and also for a study series. The cost to register is $40/year. See below for information on last year's socials and Study Series. Click here to check out the highlights from our 2024-2025 meet-ups!
This year our Study Series will be "Saints Unveiled: A Modern Journey". Once/month we will watch a video, read stories, have discussions and do crafts/activities tied to some of our more recent Catholic saints! We have a lot of fun socials scheduled for this year also and some amazing service projects too. Check out the calendar below for a full list of Study Series and Social/Service event dates.
Youth Group & Middle School Ministry welcomes ALL kids, 6th grade through high school, but you must sign up and become a member to attend the socials and studies. We look forward to welcoming you to our group!
Confirmation Prep: Teens who are looking to make the Sacrament of Confirmation should visit our High School Confirmation page. It is a 2-year program that begins in September. We meet 2 Sunday evenings each month. Times vary by class. Our Confirmation prep program is Chosen, by Ascension Press. Please visit the High School Confirmation page for complete details and info on how to register.
Holy Hour: Every first Wednesday of the month (with a few exceptions) from 6:30pm to 7:30pm, Youth Ministry hosts an hour of Adoration, music and reflection in the church. All are welcome to attend! You won't regret coming.
