"Being Christian is not the result of an ethical choice or a lofty idea, but the encounter with an event, a person, which gives life a new horizon and a decisive direction."
-Pope Emeritus Benedict XVI
Life Teen is an international Catholic movement that serves the Church and leads teens closer to Christ by providing resources and training that encourages vibrant Eucharistic celebrations and opportunities for teens to grow in their faith. The mission of Life Teen is accomplished by the celebration of the Eucharist, the teachings of Christ and Church, and the experience of being loved and accepted within the community.
At St. Mary of the Falls, our teens have many opportunities to grow in faith and deepen relationships in the community.
Some examples include:
Life Nights are held every Sunday from 6 pm - 8 pm in the Parish Hall. We'll see you there!
The Life Teen program would not be a success without your help! If you are interested in getting involved, our adult leadership team is always looking for volunteers.
