He has risen!

This week we will be meeting and taking advantage of the weather being nice. So dress to be outside. Since Sister Kathryn has been in the hospital we may be going down to her house to see if there is any cleanup in the yard that we can do.

Also, we need everyone to bring in a frozen pizza or some type of snack and a two litter of something to drink. This will help ease the financial burden of trying to feed 14 teenagers.

During this time we will also be working on a mission or goal for the youth group. This mission should include works of mercy. How can we help those in need? How can we be better Catholics? What can we do to make this world a better place? How can we fix problem with our social standards? It is clear that we do love God. It shows by us being involved in church and the youth group. But at church it is easier than when we get out into our everyday life. Do you say the rosary, pray or even thank God for everything he has given you?

Since the school year is almost to a close, we will also be working on officer elections and developing bi-laws or standards for the group. This is important for the group so that our faith may blossom.

Have a blessed day.

Alleluia He is Risen!



As we celebrate this Easter Season, we will be enjoying the weather outdoors as much as possible. When we can we will be showing the church our support and help out when we can. However, this meeting we will be having an Easter Egg Hunt for the youth group. Everyone should bring a frozen pizza and a two liter of pop. We will use this for something to eat at the end of the meeting.



Here are dates to put in your calendar now.

May 16 - Progressive Dinner 12:00 - 5pm - We need volunteers to host a part of the meal. We will have a stop for appetizer, salad, soup, main course (sloppy joes worked well last year) and dessert. If you are interested please contact Heather.


May 26, 2010 - Last meeting for the year. We will resume in the fall. Watch for summer events where we are getting together.

June 12 - Car Wash - 9am - 12pm. We found out that 3 hours was enough time to wear out the adults in the group. We need towels, hoses, sprayer, sponges, soap and buckets.


June 21 - Great America - Youth group family members are invited. The bigger the group the bigger the discount. I need to know who wants to go by May 19, 2010 at the youth group meeting.
