Hello, everyone!
It's time to start looking forward to the summer! For us here at GS Youth, most programs will slow down over the summer. This doesn't mean, though, that there won't be opportunities! Here's what we've got planned:
- Mass & Donuts w/ Fr. A – Thursdays after 8:30am MassCome to the 8:30am Mass and then join Fr. A for some coffee, donuts, juice, or whatever breakfast snack he conjures up that week! This is a relaxed opportunity to meet up with friends, worship, and enjoy food and conversation. Depending on the week, we may play a game, talk about an interesting topic or book, or just hang out. Open to both middle and high school students.
- Summer Service – June 16th & 30th; July 14th & 21st
Make friends, enjoy the outdoors, work, and gain service hours. Give back to the parish who has given so much to you! We’ll work around the parish to make the grounds more beautiful and more accessible. Stay tuned for more info and dates. Open to all 8th-12th graders. - Prayer and Action – July 5th - 8th
A mission trip in and for our own communities. Hosted at Most Pure Heart of Mary Parish in Topeka, youth will paint, clean, do yard work, perform meaningful tasks for the poor, disabled, and elderly, all while praying, worshiping, learning, and playing together. Facilitated by a mission team of seminarians and other dynamic young adults, this is an experience like no other. Open to high schoolers. Limit of 7 students. $150
I've attached a flyer, and a Prayer and Action registration form. Please know that we are taking all COVID-19 precautions and will make these events safe and helpful for your students.
Thanks so much for all of your support! Please pray for us!
Fr. Ashmore
