Director of Youth Ministry

We haven‟t had the time to announce our “Cruise to Nowhere” out of Freeport, but we sure did have a GREAT time.
We also had a wonderful time at Hope House. I was so afraid we didn‟t have enough food but we made it! Everyone had plenty to eat and a great time. Thanks to all who helped.
We are leaving for our summer retreat on Aug 11th and coming back Aug 14th. We are tight on funds, so we are asking for donations to assist us. Donations can be given to the office, myself or placed in the collection basket. Please make sure any donations
are marked for „The Keys.‟ Thank you for all your support!

PS: Thank you oh so much Jim Barker for the use of your trailer and your muscles.
Love & Smiles, ☺
Connie, Beth, Jim and Michael

The "Keys of the Kingdom" is an opportunity for our children in Grades 7 and up to share faith with their peers. On most Sunday afternoons, prior to the 7:00 Mass, the Keys join together for guidance, support and to learn our faith through meaningful and fun activities.

The "Keys" volunteer once each month to conduct "Christian story time" as an introduction to religion for children who have not reached Faith Formation age. Members assist at weekly meetings, retreats, work projects and at the Vacation Bible Camp.

Our motto:

“ HAVING FUN WHILE MAKING GOD PROUD”

The Keys will continue To Make God Proud in all that they do!!!!!!

•Recently The Keys were asked to visit Church of the Immaculate Conception to help develop a Youth Group for their parish. Cara, Courtney, Ray and Hailey did a GREAT JOB. We had a great time . We visited each religion class and spoke to the teens on living our faith while doing good things for our community. We wish them well!!

Please call the rectory if you have questions or comments.
We'd love to hear from you.

Thank You & God Bless,
