WHAT IS LIFE TEEN?

Life Teen is a Catholic youth ministry program used by over 1,800 parishes around the world! It is a powerful ministry whose goal is to bring teens closer to Christ. This liturgy-centered ministry engages teens where they are and helps them navigate the teachings of the Church in their everyday lives. The goal of Life Teen is to help students encounter Christ and grow in relationship with Him. It is not a classroom, but the students will experience teachings, small groups, service, social nights, Bible Study and more. All high school teens are encouraged to attend, and new faces are always welcome!

Life Teen nights are weekly youth ministry nights where teens come together in community for fun, faith, and discussion. Teens are challenged to engage in conversation about what we believe as Catholics and what it means for them as teens.
