Our Mission

Faith Formation and Youth Ministry allow for a time to engage with other like-minded Catholics, form bonds to create a strong army of God within our parish, open them to more knowledge and information from the approved curriculum and prepares them to navigate life with others...prepared for the world outside 

the church that they navigate. 

We are not just a program, we are a 

sacred journey passing the light of 

Jesus Christ to one soul at a time.
