St. Ignatius Youth Group Invites You!
Youth Ministry is a vital part of the church today – that’s why
here at St. Ignatius Loyola we have a newly-formed High
School Youth Group. There’s no doubt that you are facing
changes and challenges every day – why not spend time
connecting with other high school students through fellowship
and faith! We personally invite you to attend the events listed
– we’ve also included a brief explanation of the evenings
below. There is no commitment – come to any or all of the
evenings scheduled. Bring a friend and experience for
yourself…that’s the best way to know if this is for you! If you
would like to be placed on the e-mail list for future dates and
activities, please contact David Kuhns, Director of Youth
Ministry, at dkuhns@stignatiusreading.org, with your name
and parents e-mail address.
Activity Nights:
Nights where the youth are invited to take part in games,
fellowship, faith, and snacks.
Homework, Dinner, Praise Nights:
This is an evening offered every second Thursday of the month
when the High School youth are invited to bring their
homework and share in dinner together. Following dinner the
youth are encouraged to attend a prayer and praise service in
the chapel. Homework and dinner will be held in the John Paul
II Room in the Church.
“Created for Love” Series:
Using a mix of stories, real-life examples, activities,
discussions, and references to the culture you understand,
Theology of the Body for Teens presents Pope John Paul II’s
compelling vision for love and life. Far from a list of rules and
“don’ts” this series will give you a guidebook to help answer
the fundamental questions of life, such as: Why did God give
us sexual desires? What is the difference between love and
lust? How far is “too far”? These evenings will include snacks
and social time!
Steubenville Youth Conference:
A weekend retreat where hundreds of High School students
from all over the country gather to learn about and discuss
their faith. There will be dynamic speakers, great music, and
amazing opportunities to share fellowship not only with youth
in our parish but also with youth from all over the country.
