High School students from any school or parish are invited to come together as a Christian Community where our teens are invited to be themselves, meet Christ in a new way, and support one another as brothers and sisters in Christ. 


Summer Schedule: June–August on Wednesdays at 6 pm

Outside unless weather is bad (then in Good Samaritan Hall)

School Year Schedule begins Sunday, September 11
