“Leading Teens Closer to Christ” |

WHAT IS LIFE TEEN?
Life Teen came to St. John’s in 2000 and has been an amazing addition to our
youth ministry. Our
already flourishing “youth group” known as Y.E.S. (Youth Embracing Spirit)
gladly took on and welcomed its new nationally known identity.
“Life
Teen is an international Catholic movement that serves the Church by providing
resources and faith experiences that help lead teens closer to Christ. This is
accomplished through a vibrant Eucharistic spirituality and by creating
opportunities for teens to grow in their faith.”
(www.lifeteen.com) The
program begins with the Life Teen Mass, which is celebrated on Sundays at 5pm
from October- May. The
Mass is designed to engage teens however; the whole parish community is welcome
to attend. The
Masses are followed by Life Nights, where youth are able to come together with
peers who share the same beliefs. These Life Nights bring Jesus Christ into the
teens’ everyday lives in a unique and fun way. Saint
John’s Life Teen offers programs for three different age groups.
