Youth Ministry is a place for students to gather as a community of peers, enjoy fun activities, and continue grow in their relationship with Christ as His beloved disciples. We encourage all of our students 6th-12th grade to grow in their faith in our Youth Ministry program. It’s our responsibility as parents to give this opportunity to our children in this lifelong journey with Christ as His disciples. At St. Timothy we students in 10th grade receive their Confirmation and require a two year prep. Youth Ministry is required for our 9th and 10th graders to prepare for Confirmation but we know how important Youth Ministry is for all of our students, in fact we are called to a life of formation and transformation in our faith. Please refer to our options below and register them by clicking the links below.
HIGH SCHOOL LIFE TEEN STUDENTS
LIFE TEEN Parent Meeting: Sunday, September 13th 6:30pm
LIFE TEEN Fall Semester Kick-Off: Sunday, September 20th 6:30pm
OPTION 1: On Campus- Join our Live LIFE TEEN Youth Ministry Life Night on Sunday evenings from 6:30pm-8:30pm following our 5:30pm Mass. We will not require students to wear a mask, however it will be encouraged. We will separate students into smaller sizes to eliminate large gatherings of students in smaller spaces.
OPTION 2: Virtual- Join a dedicated LIFE TEEN Discipleship Zoom group that will meet once a week. These group will be led by our Adult Mentors. They will engage in some fun zoom activities, utilize video teachings, have discussions around those topics, and pray together. These groups will decide along with their mentors what day and time is best for them to zoom weekly. As of now this option will be used for our Fall Semester and we will reevaluate if we continue this option in January.
9th & 10th Grade Students Preparing For Confirmation:

Youth Ministry is transitioning to meeting online with students. We are doing this primarily in Zoom meetings. We are working very hard on these gatherings to make them interactive, fun and engaging to keep them growing as a disciple during this time being locked-in. We want all of our students Middle and High School to log-in and join us. Please encourage your child to join us online and hopefully make it a priority for them to continue to grow in their faith.
How To Set Up Zoom Meetings:
This is where we will meet daily with students. As the host, Justin Lantz will have full access to mute students’ video or audio, allow students to join the group, and the group will end when I exit the meeting. Each Zoom has at least two safe environment trained adults. It is a safe way for our group to meet and allows us to continue to build our community during this time.
