A great weekend for the youth

Our youth program had a busy and spiritually fulfilling weekend. On Saturday, the middle school students learned about Advent, other winter holiday traditions, and even explored their creative sides by making their own nativities and ornaments for a service program.

We were also reminded of the generosity of our parish by the support at our youth bake sale. We sold all of the donated baked items and the money raised is helping to get us on our way for events like Mountain Madness, Steubenville of the Rockies, and High School Mission trip.

We are wrapping up the year with parish caroling on Wednesday evening at 6 pm along with the RE students and anyone from the parish who enjoys singing. Keep checking the blog for the new year calendar.

Happy Advent and Merry Christmas,
Mandy

Happy Advent!

Everywhere we go, we are reminded that Christmas will soon be here. Don't forget to take some time during Advent to really pray about the true meaning of Christmas: Jesus. All the 6-9 grade RE students received an Advent and Christmas reflection book just before Thanksgiving. If you still need one, they are available in the back of the church or you can contact me.

Happy Advent,
Mandy
