Youth Ministry Monthly Update- February 16, 2022

After a busy end to January we had a low key February in preparation for Lent. We have a couple of events coming up to end February. During Lent we have a couple large events as well well as some smaller events with limited spots. Due to the nature of Lent, this is a great time for teens to connect with teen ministry as we practice fasting, praying, and almsgiving. Please look over the upcoming events so that you and your teens can be aware of whats going on at our parish.

Reoccurring Reminders
Volunteers needed for Lent!- During Lent there are four events that require additional adults in order to make them possible.  Adults with all of their clearances can sign up to assist using the sign up link. 

Communications updates- We have a lot going and we want the teens of our parish to know about it. Fill out the communication form to help us connect with your son or daughter. Events are promoted
  • In the monthly update
  • Via text leading up to it
  • On Instagram
  • With Altar announcements at mass
  • In the Bulletin
  • On the board in the church Vestibule
Recaps
Ask an Oblate- This was an awesome event that will probably be a staple going forward. One aim of teen ministry is to give our teens the space to connect with Catholic adults and to ask questions. They were given the chance to meet our priests and a young Oblate seminarian and to ask questions. Over the course of the hour they learned about prayer, discernment, Salesian spirituality, and vocation.​

Adulting 101- On January 30th we hard part one of adulting 101. Mr. Wilkins, a parishioner, former wealth management partner at PNC, and current high school mathematics and personal finance teacher in Philadelphia spoke to our teens about budgeting, planning for the future, and figuring out your North Star. Teens also heard from Katie Cillo about meal planning, eating healthy, and grocery shopping while eating some cheese empanadas.

***Upcoming Events***

February 20th - Bowling Social @ The Town Alley 2:00-4:00
Teens are invited to meet at The Town Alley for some bowling this Sunday 2:00-4:00. Cost is $15 per teen which includes 2 hours of bowling and shoe rental. Teens will need to buy their own food and drinks if they want any. Please RSVP by Saturday at 12:00. Space is limited to the first 10 teens. Email [email protected] or reply to this email to reserve your spot. Open to teens in 8th-12th grade.​​

Teen Leadership meeting - Wednesday February 23rd 8:00-9:00
High school teens are invited to come to this meeting to help plan upcoming events. As our seniors will be graduating soon we are looking for 9th, 10th, and 11th graders to consider taking a more active role in teen ministry. The teen leadership team are the brains behind our events. They are the ones who create the yearly schedule.

First Friday Adoration, Dinner, and Social- Friday March 4th, 5:00-8:45pm (open to 8th-12th grade)
After evening prayer we will share a Lenten meal, enjoy indoor yard games and board games, hear a short reflection, and end our evening praying the stations of the cross. See the schedule below. Teens are asked to be there for either Adoration or if they are coming late to stay until closing prayer. Parents please let us know if your teen is arriving late or leaving early.

5:00 Silent Personal Adoration
5:30 Evening prayer
6:00 Lenten Dinner
6:30 Time to hang out
7:30 short reflection
8:15 Closing prayer (stations of the cross)
8:45 pick up

Praying 101- Lenten Small group (9th-12th grade)
Recognizing the limited spots in our parish teen small groups and the time commitment they require, we are offering a special 5 week small group for teens during Lent. Teens are asked to join for the duration of the small group which will meet on Wednesdays from 7:30-8:30. We will be learning about and discussing developing a habit of prayer.
