Youth Ministry

Youth Minister: Valeria Henderson. For more information, contact: [email protected]

Youth Ministry at Holy Family is focused on fostering a supportive community for young people to grow in their faith. We provide meaningful programs and events that encourage youth and teens to connect with one another and grow in their relationship with Christ.

Through retreats, events, and service opportunities, our Youth Ministry aims to empower youth to live out their Catholic values and become active members of the Church. Join us as we support each other on our faith journeys and work together to make a positive impact in our community.

EDGE Nights will be held on Thursdays

I’m especially excited to share that this year we’ll be launching the Life Teen EDGE program for our middle schoolers!

Life Teen is a Eucharist-centered movement that seeks

ther young Catholics.
