St. Mary’s Youth Ministry

St. Mary’s youth ministry provides a loving community that accompanies and supports youth grades 6-12 on their faith journeys and energizes them to extend the love of Christ to the world.

Our Offerings for Youth

Our ministry creates a safe space for youth to explore who they are, discover their gifts, build meaningful friendships, and deepen their relationship with God. Supported by caring adults and encouraged by their peers, they are welcomed, valued, and empowered to be themselves.

Youth Group

Monthly gatherings built around fellowship, faith, food, and fun. Each year, youth explore a central theme through engaging activities, meaningful conversations, and shared experiences that help connect faith to everyday life.

Youth Bible Study

Monthly exploration of Scripture that encourages youth to ask questions and discover how God’s story speaks to their own lives. A new theme each year invites participants to engage with the Bible in fresh, relevant ways.

Confirmation

For youth in 8th grade and older, Confirmation offers an opportunity to deepen faith, explore the Episcopal tradition, and make a personal commitment to Christ. Through monthly gatherings, a retreat, and guided conversations, participants grow in discipleship and community as they prepare for the Sacrament of Confirmation.

Registration for the 2026-2027 class is open through August 31. Contact our Director of Youth Formation to learn more.
