Welcome to St. Bernadette's High School Youth Ministry!
We are here to walk with you on your journey towards Christ as we build community, learn the faith, and have FUN!
We want to provide a dynamic youth ministry experience for your teen! Please find below how we can accompany your teen and help them build a relationship with God:
Sunday Option:
Teens gather together on Sunday afternoons in Small/Big groups with faithful catechists to learn together in community the teachings of the Church. (Specific Times and Dates found by clicking the button below)
Family-Hybrid Option:
Families can sign up to create a family plan which involves: catechetical resources to be done in the home, attending youth ministry events/volunteer opportunities, and regularly scheduled family meetings with a member of the Faith Formation Team. (Previously known as a Home Study Option - Find out more by clicking the button below) It should be noted, The Family-Hybrid Option is for families that cannot work Sunday Faith Formation into their family schedule. In other words, Family-Hybrid Option is an exception to the norm.
