High School
Wednesdays 7:00 - 8:30 pm
Teens meet weekly to make connections, share insights and concerns, and grow in faith. Different teens are there from week to week due to sports and jobs. ​That is the beauty of it, you can always go or miss from time to time and there will always be people there to welcome you and make you feel at home.​
Brett Becker and the Peer Leaders do a great job addressing current world events, playing the latest music, games and videos, and enjoying life.
​​The name is from the first book of Timothy.

Baptism for Teens
High School
​Infants and very young children are baptized based on the faith of their parents, godparents and the community. But kids, capable of having a faith of their own, are initiated through the Becoming Catholic process.
We have a loving and welcoming process adapted for teens through which high school teens are prepared to be received into the Church.

Youth Confirmation
High School
Two year process ​
Generally begins at the start of ninth grade. 
This two-year process for high school teens includes Sunday sessions, hands-on ministry, large and small group faith sharing, community events, retreats, service experiences, and a ton of activities to choose from that culminate in receiving the sacrament.
​It is an awesome period of growth not to be missed.
