St. Theresa Youth Ministry

Do Ordinary Great Things

What is IGNITE?

IGNITE is a ministry that engages the youth of St. Theresa in the holy sacraments, service to others, and fellowship. IGNITE will emphasize helping youth encounter Christ through the truth, beauty, goodness of our Catholic faith. Activities will focus on the Three Pillars of Faith: Prayer, Service, and Worship.

In God’s Name, Inspire Truth and Excellence

Who can join?

The program targets (but not limited to) middle school teens, grades 5 to 8.

How will we accomplish our mission?

Participation: Provide opportunities in liturgical offerings and service group opportunities. This will allow teens to be involved and flexibly work within their busy schedules. 

Institute teen leaders: We will teach leaders how to plan, promote, recruit volunteers, and execute events. They will help run our team meetings and pray for the mission and for those we are serving.

Active communication and participation with parents: Adults in the lives of the youth are another key to growing a thriving youth ministry. We will also recruit young adults and parents to help us in our ministry.

We will use social media to the extent it is age-appropriate and parent-approved.
