"Don't let anyone look down on you because you are young,
but set an example for the believers in speech,
in life, in love, in faith, and in purity."

The mission of our St. Mary Parish Youth Ministry is to provide a holistic outlet for our teens to participate and grow in our Catholic Faith Community. A critical element to the success of our mission, is not only the support of our teens' parents, but of the entire parish community. Every one of us plays a role in creating a parish culture where our teens are encouraged to participate resulting in a strong sense of belonging to our vibrant parish.
High School

Junior High Youth Ministry
Our Junior High Program is designed to be an addition to the faith formation programs. Take a deeper dive into our Catholic faith by learning about the Saints, why the sacraments matter, and what being Catholic in the modern world means.
Our fall kick-off date is Thursday, September 25, 6:00-7:30pm. Our events will continue bi-weekly through December. Please check the Youth Ministry page in the bulletin for updates, or contact Matt at mjung@stmarymokena.org
