At St. Michael, we see our high school teens as a vital and valued part of our parish family. You are not only supported and cared for by our community—you are also called to be leaders, role models, and ministers to others. Through our Youth Ministry, you’ll find meaningful opportunities to connect with peers, grow in your faith, and give of your time and gifts in service. We invite you to join us on this exciting journey of faith, friendship, and purpose.
