All Things New Archdiocesan Youth Rally 2013- Thanks to all who participated and the parents who supported our youth in this great event!
Pay It Forward- Palm Sunday Family Service Day: Last year we served at MEAC. Next Sunday, starting at 1:00PM until 2:30PM, we have the opportunity to help a parishioner who is in need of some assistance. Families from EDGE and K-5 Faith Formation are welcome to serve. Spots are limited; please let Nathan Eten know by Thursday, March 21st, if you are able to commit to serving on March 24th. Pizza and drinks will be provided on site. Location and instructions will be provided via e-mail.
Important Reminder for Parents!: We will NOT have a regular EDGE session on Sunday morning, March 24th. We will be providing a service opportunity for families to participate in. See “Pay It Forward” at the top. Also, we will NOT be having a session on Easter Sunday morning, March 31st.
Clean Up Cortona Hall: All youth in middle school and high school along with their families are invited to “Clean Up Cortona Hall” on Saturday, April 13th from 11:00AM-2:00PM. We will give the building where we have our EDGE sessions a sprucing up; to show we care about what we have. This is a great direct service opportunity for all and one that will impact our youth ministry in a visible way. Lunch and drinks will be provided. We’ll need rakes, shovels, buckets, and scrub brushes if you can bring them. Please let Nathan Eten know by Thursday, April 11th, if you are able to commit to serving on April 13th. Youth who do not have a parent on site will be required to fill out a release form. All parishioners are welcome to volunteer if they feel called to.
