Family with Teen(s)
One of our main focus as Catholics during Lent is to pray more. This App will invite you into deeper prayer with its 40 day challenge. The 40 Day Spiritual Workout for Catholic Teens was designed with one purpose in mind: to help you grow strong in your Catholic faith! Whether you are coming off a retreat or are looking to jump-start your spiritual life, the 40 Day Spiritual Workout will help you establish a life of daily prayer through powerful Scripture reflections, inspirational quotes from saints, and insightful explanations of how to pray. Join the thousands of teenagers who have been blessed by the Spiritual Workout and grow stronger in your love for Jesus Christ! This free app is a gift to you from Franciscan University of Steubenville, Ohio. Download it in the App store, and pray with it all Lent long! Learn more about it or sign up for an email version here. |
As we enter into Lent once more, it is important for us to look at some of the traditions around the season and ask ourselves...why? One of the most interesting traditions, and one you might get some questions about, is the practice of not eating meat on Fridays and instead choosing fish.
Read an article from NPR on the economic influence of fish on Fridays and some of the myths and history associated with that HERE. Or watch the following video that will explain this "strange thing that Catholics do".

Help the youth ministry be a part of our Parish Fish Fries! Join us from 4-7:30pm to run the dessert table, and clear tables. All proceeds from the sale of deserts go directly to help teens go on service trips and to the National Catholic Youth Conference. Shifts will be from 4-6 and 6-7:30 and will count for school service hours.
We also rely on people baking and bringing in desserts to stock the dessert table. Pies and fancy cakes sell the best! Drop your donations off in the parish hall anytime, and stay to help if you can. Ideas for recipes can be found HERE. Thank you in advance for you generosity!
These events are great for our young people to get to know their fellow parishioners, and be a part of a great community event. Not only will they participate in service, but they will help to raise funds that the Knights of Columbus so generously give to those in need each year.
The dates are: February 9th,16th, 23rd, and March 2nd, 9th, 16th and 23rd.
