Tuesday Mornings Before School | 7-8:15a in the Youth Center
Tolle Lege ("Take Up and Read") Mornings are opening to all high school teens who desire to learn and discuss a little more theology and philosophy on a deeper, "college prep" level. Teens considering joining this group should be attending Sunday Life Nights with regularity and find themselves asking bigger questions and hungering for more in matters of the faith. This is NOT a morning substitute for Life Nights, but rather something that is more "201 level." Meetings will take place on each Tuesday that is also a school day. Learn more & sign up:

Meet our new Associate Youth Advocate!
Peyton will primarily be responsible for our middle schoolers & EDGE Ministry but available as an additional mentor to our high schoolersPeyton Thomasson comes to us from the deep south of Mobile, Alabama and is relocating to the Richmond area. As a recent graduate of Auburn University, where she majored in communications, Peyton has felt called by the Lord to pursuit a vocation in youth ministry. In college, she spent time as a FOCUS Student Leader, working with small groups of college Catholics, as well as leading bible studies. She also just recently completed a pilgrimage to Medjugorie, which she has described as life-changing, and has attributed to her call and desire to work in ministry. Peyton will primarily be responsible for our middle school youth and EDGE movement, while also collaborating with Mike in the larger scheme of the Youth Ministry at St. Michael. Her first day here will be on October 15th! Feel free to stop by the youth office and say hello or send her a message at pthomasson@saint-mikes.org She comes to us with a great fire and hunger for her faith and the desire to pass that faith on to our youth!
