In addition to the Youth Mission opportunities made available to our youth and young adults,
We provide opportunities to be involved in a variety of parish-wide service community opportunities. 

Such as, participating in:

• Ministry Stewardship Opportunities, in collaboration with our parish ministries (I.e. Liturgical Ministries, Knights of Columbus, Women of the Well, and more) 
• The Christmas Giving Tree
• The Easter Basket Project
• Migrant food pantry service in Skagit Valley
• Providing service opportunities in our Meditation Park, Parish Gardens, and in our community
• Sunday Morning Breakfast Clubs

Youth Migrant Project Mission (YMP) - Each summer, our youth, young adult leaders, and chaperones collect donations for the migrant community and travel to Burlington/Mt Vernon, WA in the Skagit Valley to serve alongside our 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 first week of August and costs $175.00 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 participate, make food or essential item donations, and or to inform us of families in need 
please contact us.  

Each year our youth ministry leads and participates in the Easter Basket Project. In 2016 the families enrolled in Faith Formation at SJB wanted to put their Faith into action. One of the many objectives was to have our children and youth provide a faith-based service to those in our community. From this, Project Easter Basket was born. The Easter Basket Project aims to extend our celebration of the Resurrection of Christ by providing gifts of love from our children and youth to other children in need. Baskets completed are a product of a parish wide initiative that includes donations, assembling, and delivery to the Tyler House in Tacoma, a faith-based community that provides housing, counseling, and life-skills training to families afflicted with addiction and seeking to transition to becoming self-sustaining in society. 

Our parish wide donation collection begins during lent, baskets are assmbled by our youth, young adults, and parish families and are delivered before Easter.

To participate, make donations, and or for more information please contact Cassie.
