Youth Ministry Monthly Update- September 28, 2020

​Please take a look at upcoming events and activities for October

General updates:
  • Updated Website- The Teen ministry page on the parish website has been updated to make it easier to navigate. Please take a look at the new main page and the most recent Gospel reflections.

  • Youth Group Sign up form- We are asking each parent that wishes their child(ren) to participate in youth ministry events to please take a couple of minutes to complete the form to the right. The form will only need to be completed one time.
Youth Group Sign up form
​
  • Communication form- In addition to the google form, this form grants permission for teens to follow our instagram page, join flocknotes, and to email Mr. Cillo regarding youth ministry. We ask that parents be copied on any email sent to or by a minor and church staff/volunteers.
Communication with minors consent form

  • Gospel Reflections- We have had some of our teens write reflections for the Sunday Gospel. These are written by teens for teens, although the entire parish can benefit! The reflections are shared on Instagram, flocknote, and the parish website every Friday. Please let me know if your teen (8th-12th grade) would like to write one!

  • Teen Service Corps- This fall we are looking to create a group of teens who are willing to help do yard work for our elderly parishioners and neighbors. Opportunities to serve will be shared as they arise. Please let us know if you would like to be added to our list or if you know someone who could use this service.


September Recap

Small groups have begun! Our two high school small groups started to meet mid September we have 14 teens participating in these groups. Please keep them in your prayers. 
​Wissahickon Hike- A group of teens met for a hike down to the Wissahickon creek. Along the way they picked up trash and then we stopped for lunch and a prayer service. Thank you to the parishioner who donated soft pretzels for the day.
