Important Info From Dcn. Ed

Thank You!
First things First, a great big shout out and thank YOU! The following Parents, teens, family members that helped out in the month of September!
  • Shaun & Isabella Mills - For helping in the kitchen at Life Teen on Sept 14.
  • The parents, grandparents, family members, & God Parents that attended the Design by wine fundraiser. We had a great time gathering in community, painting, and raised about $400 that will support our mission fund.
  • Richard Martinez (Sr), Jonathan Buckner (Sr), that helped us on the Confirmation retreat.

October Updates….

Don’t Miss out these events! Registration Closes tonight (10/1) at 11pm

Here is the Quick info:
  • Life Teen welcomes ALL high school teens with open arms, sacraments or not! 🌟
  • If you've ever wondered about the 'why' and 'what' behind our awesome activities, look no further than the Life Teen Connect Page! 
  • Let's kick-start your teen's spiritual journey into high gear! It's not just about showing up for an hour each week. Encourage them to serve at mass, join in on the pumpkin palooza, and more.
  • Registering your teen for a special event is a breeze. Start with your contact info (phone, email), and then seamlessly add your teen to the event.
  • Need to update your family's contact info? Just click here
  • Mark your calendars for October 22, 2023 - St. John Paul II's Feast Day, the patron saint for youth. Say a prayer for his intercession and feel the positive vibes!
  • October brings us only 2 Jesus and Java sessions, so don't miss out!
  • Stay in the loop! We deliver info through email, texts, bulletins, the web, social media, handouts, and, on occasion, good ol' snail mail! 📬
  • The most fantastic days to meet with us are Wednesdays and Thursdays, even in the evening. Keep in mind that the Youth Office is closed on Fridays and Saturdays.
  • Here's a friendly reminder: if your teen doesn't attend any events/meetings for 45 days, they'll be temporarily un-enrolled. But no worries! Re-enrollment is a breeze—all they have to do is check into an event/meeting. Unenrollment just means you won't receive our updates via text, email, etc.

Hey there, be prepared and get ready to dive into the future:

  • November
    • On November 1st, mark your calendars for the Holy Day of Obligation, All Saints Day! Make sure to attend Mass, it's a must!
    • Get ready for an incredible opportunity to assist St. Vincent De Paul with their Thanksgiving Drive, helping distribute food to those in need. Teens and parents, get ready to sign up and make a difference.
    • Exciting news! We'll be unveiling the dates for our special events in 2024. Stay tuned for some fantastic experiences.
    • Calling all parents of the parish! The Parents Advisory Council will be gathering, and we extend a warm invitation to all parents in the parish to join us.
  • December
    • We'll be needing some parent power for our Feast day of Guadalupe Dinner. Lorena Medina is leading the charge, assembling a fantastic cooking team. Get ready to lend a hand!
    • December 1st is a significant date. Registrations for our special events in 2024 will open. Be an early bird and sign up to be a part of our exciting fundraising efforts.
    • It's a special moment during Midnight Mass, and we'll need our amazing teens to play a role by carrying in the Baby Jesus. Let's make it a memorable occasion!

Get ready to make an impact and be part of these exciting upcoming events!
