Life Teen

We are currently seeking volunteers to be part of our Life Teen Core Team!

A Core Team is a team of adult volunteers who minister to the High School Youth of the parish through St. Mary’s Life Teen program.
Core members have:
· A love for Christ and high school youth.
· A desire to minister to high school youth on a weekly basis.
· A willingness to serve as a Christian role model.
· A love for their Catholic Faith and an active spiritual life
 
A Core Member’s responsibilities include:

1. COMMIT. Commit to Life Teen ministry and High School youth for one year.
2. PLAN. Meet with the youth minister and other Core Members once a week to plan Life Teen nights
3. PRAY. Pray more than you plan. Prayer plays a key role in ministering to youth. It’s important that Core Members pray often for the youth.
4.  SERVE. Serve the youth in Life Teen nights, including:
A. Assist setting up/tearing down for Life Teen night
          B. Lead small group discussions
          C. Occasionally giving a testimony/catechetical talk to the youth
          D. Assist in preparing food for the Life Teen night
 
Life Teen Ministry is not effective without the utilization of Relational Ministry. This means actually building a relationship with the teens and going above and beyond to show them you care about them. But it can’t stop there. This relationship should help guide them into a closer relationship with Christ and a love for their Catholic Faith.
 
Please pray about whether or not you feel called to this important ministry.

 If you feel you might be called to be a Core Member, please contact Clare Weltens at 830-997-9523 or use the form below.
