Dear Parents,

We love our young people and love our parents!! We are so excited to minister to your children and bring them closer to an encounter with Christ. 

As parents, your role in your child’s faith life is infinitely more influential than ours could ever be. If there’s anything we can do to help you take the faith home, let us know. We ask that you pray for our young people in SJYM, that they may be open to the ways the Lord wants to move in their hearts.

We encourage you to take a step further. Your child/ren spend 2 hours every week learning about our Lord and His Church. We challenge YOU to spend 2 hours every week learning about our Lord and His Church. Ablaze Ministries and St. Joseph's have provided a couple of resources for you to do that. (See below)

We also really encourage you to participate in our youth ministry. We have many opportunities for the parents and our parish to volunteer, including as small group leaders, as meal team helpers, and on our leadership team.

Interested in being a part of our youth ministry? Email Sarah at sarah@ablaze.us

Beyond the Pew is a vlog (video blog) for parents that discusses topics we cover at Ignite and Journey and ways to live out the faith as a family. Led by our directors of youth ministry, Beyond the Pew gives short, easy videos for you to watch and apply. Each semester series of Beyond the Pew focuses on a specific topic, typically chosen from issues faced in the world today and common issues you may come across while raising your children in the Catholic faith. This FREE resource is specifically for you, the parents, and is a great way to help you help your child grow in relationship with Jesus Christ.

Watch Beyond the Pew. 

Our entire parish is invited to Encounter!! We desire for your entire family to have a relationship with our Lord, so please join us for a night of adoration, praise & worship, a fantastic talk, and an opportunity to be prayed over by one of our prayer teams! This event is held at the PAC.
