Youth Ministry

Youth Ministry in our collaborative is the response of our faith community to the needs of young people and the sharing of unique gifts of youth with the parish. It is a ministry to, with, by and for youth.

We are always looking for adult volunteers and chaperones!

Each summer, the teens from our community embark upon a weeklong service trip called Workcamp to help those in need. 
The trip usually happens right after the school year ends and before the July 4th holiday. Workcamp has been a part of the community life at Our Lady's since 1997 and is open to all of the youth of our Collaborative! We are excited to be in our third decade of service and formation with and for our young people!
