OUR MISSION
The mission of St. Brigid Youth Ministry is to keep Jesus Christ at the center of the lives of our youth. We focus on the student’s personal relationship with Jesus as well as their journey as a disciple of Jesus. We also focus on leadership development, small group discussion, outings, and gatherings. We seek to foster a passion for justice and peace as well as church teachings on respecting life.
Retreats
St. Brigid Youth Ministry offers several annual retreats for parish youth. Day-long and overnight events offer an opportunity to get away. relax, and come to know the Lord and one another better. Parents are encouraged to support the participation of their children in these retreat experiences. The purpose of these retreats is to:
- Build and deepen community
- Deepen a sense of identity and involvement of young people with the Catholic Church
- Teach about integration of faith and morals in everyday living
Service
The life and teachings of Jesus call us to reach out and serve those in need. Our Catholic Social Teachings help us to understand our responsibility of Christian witness, justice, and service. St. Brigid Youth Ministry is active in educating and challenging our young people to live out this call within the parish and broader community. Various opportunities are offered throughout the year for becoming involved in service both within and outside the parish.
