“Hear, O Israel: the Lord is our God, the Lord alone. You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart
and with all your soul and with all your might.”

Deuteronomy 6: 4-5 NRSV

Mission

St. Mary's fosters a dynamic community of youth and adults who together:

  • Reflect on scripture, tradition and culture
  • Practice age appropriate Christian fellowship through games, films, retreats and meals together
  • Tackle life's tough issues using Christ-centered resources
  • Enjoy worship in community regularly and intentionally
Objective
We aim to sustain a Christian education and fellowship structure for youth in our parish that is led by adult laypeople who are willing to share in the experience of guiding the developing faith of St. Mary's young people.

“The gifts he gave were that some would be apostles, some prophets, some evangelists, some pastors and teachers, to equip the saints for the work of ministry, for building up the body of Christ, until all of us come to unity of the faith and of knowledge of the Son of God, to maturity, to the measure of the full stature of Christ.”

Ephesians 4: 11-13 NRSV
