Life Teen High School Program: Grades 9-12
The Life Teen program is a complete, comprehensive and interactive model of religious formation. Through youth friendly Liturgies, Life Nights, weekly activities, service opportunities, teen leadership and outreach activities, teens learn more about their Catholic faith and grow to love the Sacraments, the Word, and the Mass.
August - May
Sundays 6:30 - 8:00 pm

Life Teen recognizes and views teens as a distinct culture. Today’s teen culture is totally different than the one in which you grew up. Clothing, language, music, social outlets and attitudes about life are all elements that help define this culture. It is essential to successful youth ministry to recognize the culture from which the teens emanate in order to bring them into a deeper relationship with Jesus.
At a parish with the Life Teen program, a priest, youth minister, music ministry and a Core team of volunteers build an environment where teens feel loved, accepted, and challenged to go deeper in their faith.
Immediately following our Sunday 5:00 pm Life Teen Mass, teens gather for a Life Night to learn about the Catholic Church and explore their faith in concrete ways. It is through Bible studies, relational ministry and personal experience that Life Teen is able to educate teens about the Catholic Church and their faith.
For more information about the Life Teen Program, please contact our Youth Minister, Daniel West, at 770-957-5441, extension 110.
