Ministry events for January
Dear Youth, The Light of the World has entered the world. We are called to rejoice and be imitators of the light. As this New Year begins we ask you to reflect on your call to discipleships as a young person within the body of Christ. It is in this reflection that we invite you to join us in our youth activities during the month of January. Through prayer, socials, fundraisers, small group, learning, training, and sharing you will be given the opportunity to grow in awareness of who you are as a “light shinning in the dark”. The month begins with an opportunity to slow down and soak in the greatness of the Christmas season through participating in an hour of prayer in front of the Blessed Sacrament. Adoration begins on January 4th at 10:00 p.m. at St. Mary’s and everyone; young and old is invited to attend. On January 6th the Confirmation youth will continue their journey of learning through continuing our focus on Jesus as “Teacher”. The class will be at the High School PFFP building at 7:00 p.m. Please bring your journals and assignments. The small group Bible study will continue their study of the Book of Samuel on Jan. 7th at Debbie’s office. We will start the night at 6:30 with pizza and begin our study at 7:00 p.m. Our session will begin with 1 Samuel 25. We look forward to joining together as a small group to share in God’s Word.

The greatest thing about a new year is that we are challenged to consciously make changes in our lives to help us live better and be better versions of ourselves, as God meant us to be. So here’s your opportunity, why not let your light shine in 2013? Happy New Year to all!
