Teens in the 9th & 10th grade are introduced to age-appropriate Evangelization- (Who IS Jesus, and Why Does It Matter?), & Catechesis- (Teaching About This Amazing God)- for high school students under the direction of their parents & families, first and foremost, with help- always- from The Holy Spirit.
By God's grace, Naomi Butler, Youth Minister Ordinairre, often along with Fr. David, is happy to lead discussion each Sunday- (from 9:15- 10:30 a.m., simultaneously gathering @ the same time K-10 now will)- in the Saint John Paul II Youth Room, right upstairs- just follow.the.food. {We follow OCSD's Caledar, so if there's a day off for any reason the following Mon., then we won't gather either, i.e: MLK, President's Day, etc.}
Though we utilize purchased discs- (#13-24 for 2018-19)- from the series "Chosen: Your Journey To Confirmation," -(which actually takes place at the end of 10th grade in May)- in all honesty they are also on You-Tube, and totally accessible, anywhere. We have heard of familes watching these clips while waiting in the parking lot at Applebees- I.kid.you.not. Check the trailer out below!. -
