Happy 2019, IGNITE Middle and High School Youth Group! We are looking forward to see what God has in store for us this year!!
First, we would like to thank Father Conley, Sue Wolfe, Mrs. Caniglia, Parents, Children, our Parish and everyone who has opened their hearts to St Mary's Youth Ministry. IGNITE stays alive with prayers, effort, much love, time, grace and generosity! We are very grateful and blessed beyond words!Second, did you know … we have added an IGNITE link to St Mary's Church's website which was created by Lauren Balderson. Please take a moment to look at some of the past IGNITE events - /ignite-youth-group (Many thanks, Lauren)! We appreciate you!
Third, we've asked a few of our Youth Group Students why they enjoy being part of the Youth Ministry, and here is what they had to say:
- "It brought me closer to God and my friends, I got to know Danielle and became friends with her." Hannah Rison, (St Mary's Bryantown)
- "I like being apart of INGITE because it gives me the opportunity to grow and serve." Vincent Wort, (St Mary's Bryantown)
- "What I love about IGNITE is that you can serve God and other people in need while having fun!" Karmen Krechman, (St Mary's Ryken High School)
- "I love being in IGNITE because it allows me to grow closer to Christ with my friends!" Lilly Bull, (St Mary's Ryken High School)
- "I like being part of IGNITE because it gives us opportunities to work with the community and our parish. It not only allows us to bond with the community, but we get to bond with God as well!" Matthew Harrer (St Mary's Ryken High School)
- "I love being in the Ignite Youth Group; because it opens my mind and heart to Jesus and life in a new, different and fun way. I also get to experience this with my friends which makes it even more exciting and meaningful." Ajay Hill (North Point High School)
Finally, please see our page for a full schedule of all of our fun upcoming events!! The date for Movie Night is still being determined. We will update as soon as a definite date is chosen. We are also looking for male volunteers to help Mr. Krechman prepare our children so they are ahead - before they even get on the road to learn practical car knowledge on how to change tires, check your oil, ect. Please contact Karen Krechman if interested in helping with this project.
