Hey there!

 We’re the Parish Youth Ministry — we are the youth who love Jesus and
want to make a difference. We meet every first & third Sunday of the
month to grow in our faith, pray, share our testimonies, and most
importantly to partake in our youth mass ,and support each other
through all of life’s ups and downs.

During the summer, we go on retreats, camps, and mission trips that help us connect with God in awesome ways and serve others who need a helping hand. Whether we’re volunteering in the community, praying
together, or just having fun, we’re all about growing closer to Christ and
spreading His joy wherever we go.



At the end of the day, we’re just teens trying to live out our faith, grow
together, and build God’s kingdom — one act of love at a time.

About The Scholarship

While putting a lot of effort into their academics, our parish

demonstrates the support that they have in their parish family
at Mary Mother of Martyrs.
