For MQP Teens:
The MQP Youth Group is made up of teenagers interested in coming together to grow in their relationship with Christ and each other. All teens are encouraged and invited to actively participate in many of the ministerial roles. Opportunities exist for teens to utilize their gifts and talents with the entire parish community by lectoring, serving, being a Eucharistic Minister, or serving as a greeter.
PROJECT LIFE - June 2019
Project Life gathers teens from various backgrounds to be transformed
by the Gospel call to love one another through service to those in need.
Throughout the course of the week, teens (aka "Feet Washers") come
to know and recognize Jesus Christ in themselves and in the people
they serve. Through spiritual programming, great music, hard work,
and good times, Project Life has become an awesome event that
allows Christ to speak and work through them in ways they would never
have imagined!
