In addition to the Youth Mission opportunities made available to our youth,
We provide opportunities for our youth to be involved in a variety of parish-wide service opportunities.
Such as, participating in:
Youth Migrant Project Mission - Each summer, youth travel to Burlington/Mt Vernon, WA in the Skagit Valley to work with migrant farmworkers and their families. We live in community at the St. Charles Retreat House, work in the Tri-Parish Food Bank, Garden of Hope Community Gardens, Lunch Feeding Program in the migrant camps, and visit the camps in the evenings to celebrate mass and fiesta.
Trip dates are generally the second week of August and costs $150.00 per person (scholarships are available).
Each year our parish Youth Ministry program oversees the Christmas Giving Tree. This program provides support to local families who are struggling to make ends meet, by providing food baskets and gifts for children of essential items (socks, underwear, pajamas, coats). We work very closely with counselors from the schools within our boundaries and local organizations to ensure a fair and just program for all involved.
To make food, essential item donations, or to inform us of families in need
please contact us.
