We enthusiastically invite all of the youths and young people of our
parish to take part in age specific groups at Most Holy Trinity–St. Mary.
As a parish, we desire to have meaningful youth and young adult outreach, and to
provide for the spiritual nourishment and growth for our young people.
Please join us as we journey together!
THE FOLLOWING ACTIVITIES ARE OFFERED FOR OUR YOUTH AND YOUNG ADULTS:
1. The parish “youth group” meets every Sunday immediately
after the 12:30 P.M. Mass (at approximately 1:30 P.M.); the meetings conclude at
3:00 P.M. We invite all youths from middle school age through high school to
participate in this group. Each Sunday we begin our meeting with lunch followed
by faith sharing and fun activities. This group targets young people
between the ages of twelve and nineteen. Please gather at the central doors to
the church immediately after the Mass. Please join us if you are one of the
youths of our parish!

rectory) every Tuesday evening from 7:30 until 9:00 P.M. We invite all young
adults between the ages of eighteen through their twenties (and beyond) to
