Each Sunday at 7:00 p.m. our high schoolers and middle schoolers gather for a meal, catechesis, and fun. Both groups enjoy dinner in the Assembly Hall (1st floor of Family Life Center). Our meals are provided by talented parent volunteers. OLS Youth adopts the acclaimed, Catholic Life Teen program and its middle-school counterpart, EDGE. Personal commitment to Jesus Christ is central to the lessons and the fellowship is always a blast!
SUNDAY MORNING FAITH FORMATION Sunday mornings are for teens unable to attend Sunday night youth group. Here we focus on Catechesis, including the Creed, Sacraments, Paschal Mystery, Morality, Church, Person of Christ, Scripture, and Vocations in our lessons throughout the year. Classes take place on the third floor of the Family Life Center from 10:00 - 11:15 a.m.
ACTIVITIES & INVOLVEMENT Our teens have many opportunities to have fun and participate in local and national events. Locally we host overnight retreats, events, and service activities. We have also been to Abbey Youth Fest in New Orleans, the March for Life in Washington, D.C, and both Life Teen Camps in Georgia!
