Youth Ministry

We, the Diocesan Youth Office pledge and commit ourselves to be joyful messengers of the Good News of our salvation. Mindful that “the witness of a Christian life is the first and irreplaceable form of mission.” (Redemptoris Missio, 42)

Therefore we will:

Have a Eucharistic mentality
Move beyond ourselves to minister to others by sharing our individual time, talent, and treasure with all those in need
Be truly open to the spiritual, social, emotional and educational needs of young people.
