Teens

Totus Tuus is Latin for Totally Yours.  It is a fun and energetic week long summer program for youth entering Grades 1-12. Kids are taught by dynamic young adults (2 men and 2 women) who dedicate a summer lead Totus Tuus programs at parishes around our Archdiocese.  Teens entering grades 7-12 participate in the Primetime program on Sunday through Thursday during Totus Tuus week (6:30 pm - - 9 pm Sunday and Thursday/7 pm -9:15 pm  Monday through Wednesday)
Dates for Summer 2020 will be availabe in the spring. 

After being Confirmed, teens are invited to participate in a Discipleship Group (D-Group). Groups use materials from YDisciple, which pairs six to eight youth with two to three adult mentors who help facilitate a discussion on topics about faith and life. As a group, they establish trust, faith sharing, and accountability, and provide guidance to the teens as they grow in their relationship with Jesus.  The core principles of Discipleship groups are: relational, relevant and parent driven. D-Groups also meet the five fundamental needs of teenagers: the need to be understood, the need to belong, the need to be transparent, the need to engage in critical thinking and the need for guidance. Teens are split into groups based on gender and age; we currently have several groups meeting at different times throughout the week.
