Youth Ministries

YOUTH MASSES
We celebrate three Youth Masses each year one at each of our parishes. These are regular weekend Masses in which young people from our region serve in the ministries of the Mass.

CLUB
We meet for CLUB the first and third Sundays of the month during the school year at 8:00. This gathering is high energy and gives the 8th graders and high school students in our region the opportunity to hear the gospel and an avenue to share it with their peers.  

DISCIPLESHIP
We are all called to be intentional disciples of Christ, and this is a gathering of young people in our region who have answered that call. We meet every Sunday evening at 7:00.

Once a month the young people in our DISCIPLESHIP group host the junior high students of our region and their friends to enjoy a get together for games, pizza and fun.

We have a week long VBS every summer for children 3 year old and older. Join us this SUMMER!!

We have two PSR programs serving the parishes of our region. We meet between the Masses at OLR and prior to the 11 am Mass at St James. Children of parishioners of St Matthias are welcome to attend at the OLR location.

We celebrate Confirmation as a region in the fall with eighth graders.
Reconciliation is celebrated as a region during Advent each year with our second graders.
First Communion is celebrated as parishes during weekend liturgies in the spring.
