Last Sunday

Habemus papam!

"We have a pope!" We sent up some white smoke and made history last week by electing our first female pope in our pretend conclave! One of our small group leaders, Callie, was elected pope as the students learned how a conclave works. It was A LOT of fun! Check out our Cardinals! :)

This Sunday

Welcome to Middle School

5th Grade Event: April 16

If you have a 5th grader, then you should save the date for our annual Welcome to Middle School event for 5th graders on April 16, 6-8pm, at Assumption BVM parish! The event is designed to give students a taste of what middle school and Middle School Youth Ministry are like! We'll play games, eat pizza, decorate pillow cases, and have time for students to ask current middle schoolers all about middle school and Middle School Youth Ministry! At YM, students can be themselves, and this event is designed to encourage students to do just that!

Treasure Box Activity

“Blessed are the peace makers for they will be called children of God.” The peace sign sticker is a reminder that being peacemakers is such an important part of who we are as Catholics that it is part of the Mass. Before we receive the Eucharist, we should be sure to have made peace with the people in our lives, particularly our family members. Make a habit of being the first to ask for forgiveness when there has been a disagreement in your family and offer forgiveness when it’s asked of you. God is merciful and we are called to be the same.

Have a great weekend! :)
