Welcome to our Youth Ministry! We’re a ministry for all 7th graders, 8th graders, and high schoolers. We’re here to help teens grow closer to Jesus - no matter where you’re starting from. Our hope is that every young person feels seen, loved, and encouraged as they explore their faith.
Twice a month, we get together for a variety of different experiences. Sometimes we serve our community, sometimes we focus on growing in our faith, and sometimes we just hang out and enjoy each other’s company. But, we can promise that every event will be FUN!!
Join us to learn more about Jesus, make friends, and be part of something bigger. We would love for you to join us!
Join the St. Joe’s Youth Group for a Cozy Drinks & Shrinky Dinks Night! All 7th graders, 8th graders, and high schoolers are invited to an evening of fall fun. Warm up with a hot chocolate and soda bar, watch the Bears game, enjoy breakfast for dinner, make your own fall crafts, and play some board games!
A saint who actually played video games? Say less. Pull up to St. Mary of Vernon with St. Joe’s and St. Mary’s youth groups for free dinner, live music with Josh Goodman, and Eucharistic Adoration. Come learn more about St. Carlo Acutis - the patron saint of tech and gaming. All 7th-12th graders are welcome; grab your friends and come hang out!
How can we pray for you? When life gets tough and questions pile up, it can be hard to feel hopeful. Prayer helps us focus on Jesus and the saints who are always ready to listen. No matter what you're going through, we’d love to pray for you!
