High School Youth Ministry
Growing in Faith Together
First and Third Sundays of Each Month | 6:00 - 8:00 pm | Parish Hall
High school youth ministry offers students in grades 9-12 the opportunity to form friendships with others who share their Catholic faith as well as support and encouragement from trusted adults as they strive to walk with Christ and grow in their faith. We gather for dinner, play games, learn about the faith and do service projects together. Participation is open to all students in grades 9-12. Friends are welcome!
If you have a child who is interested in joining high school youth ministry, or you would like to volunteer, please contact Sue Straka, volunteer Youth & Young Adult Ministry coordinator online
here. All adult volunteers must be or become compliant with the Diocese of Arlington Child Protection Policy, to include a background check and Virtus seminar.

Life Fest
Life Fest is a night of praise and morning rally held on the eve and morning of the annual March for Life in Washington, D.C. at EagleBank Arena in Fairfax, VA which features dynamic speakers, music, Holy Mass and more!

Thousands attend this annual event to pray for the success of the March for Life in changing our hearts and those of others in this country. It prepares many youth and young adults to take to the streets of Washington, D.C. to make their voices heard as they proclaim the Gospel of Life.
