All 9th-12th graders are welcome to join our youth group here at St. Mary’s!

We meet most* Sundays of the month from 6:15 - 8:00 pm, September - May, beginning Sunday, September 15th.

The requested high school youth ministry free-will offering is $75 per child.

This helps cover the cost of our Sunday night dinners and other supplies. You can submit your donation online during the registration process.
