SUNDAY YOUTH MASS
celebrated every second Sunday
of the month at the
5:30pm Mass
We strongly encourage youth to get
involved. Parents please help us
bring our youth into
The Order of the Mass, as Lectors,
Altar Servers, Gift Bearers,
Ushers and Greeters!
YGIF Leaders plan with the youth prior
to each special Sunday Youth Mass of
who and where all would like to serve.
If interested please contact
RE Office 643-3548.
