 |
St. Patrick's Youth Ministry (SPY) is a spiritual program for high school (8-12 grade) students which encompasses the catechetical, social and service aspects of faith formation. Life and faith issues for this age group are significant, and the Youth Ministry program serves as an appropriate forum for discussing relevant topics and developing a strong sense of morality. Adults serve as catechists, advisors and chaperones to assist with the program. Occasionally, summer service projects and social events are also planned.

We ask this in Jesus’ name. Amen.
