St. Therese Youth Ministry

Our parish is committed to empowering parents and helping them live out their call as leaders of the domestic church.  Passing on the faith to our children is a serious responsibility shared by parents and the whole parish community.  Our programs, activities, and resources aim to help children of all ages and their parents grow in their understanding of and in their living practice of CATHOLIC FAITH and IDENTITY.

We want the children and youth of our parish to know why the Catholic Church is the one true faith.  We want them to be attentive to the guidance of our Mother Church in seeking God's will.  We want them to feel connected to all Catholics as members of the Body of Christ.  AND we want them to see how faith is very real and practical life choice.

St. Therese provides a variety of fun and faith building opportunities for young children/middle school youth/junior high youth/senior high youth... and parents too!

If you have any questions about upcoming programs and events or if you are interested in finding out how you can help this vital parish ministry, please contact Mike at 359-9006 or mike@sttheresecatholicchurch.com.
