Next Meeting January 25, 2012

We will be meeting on Wednesday to discuss the Soup and Salad fundraiser. This is a great fundraiser for our youth group. The money that we raise goes toward, retreats, pilgrimages, and events for the youth group. It is vital that everyone attend and pick a job to do to make sure that we have a sucessful event.

On January 23, our dioceses went to Washington DC to participate in the March for Life. This event is crucial to show our government that we value all forms of life. Since 2010, I have attended this event. So this year not being a part of it was very hard. I really missed not being their as a voice of what we as Catholic's stand for.

As a group we must stand for what is right. We must stand up and protect those that can not protect themselves. We must stand up in our faith and do what God wants us to do. So I challenge each and every youth group member to make the commitment to attend the March for Life in 2013. To attend the event for just one year. I promise you, that once you attend, you will grow in your relationship with God and desire to attend the next year.

Another focus is that we also need to grow spiritually in our faith. Attending retreats will be the main focus of this group as well. We need to be the best followers of Christ that we can be.

God is Good! All the time!!
