Life NightsLife Nights are the large group weekly gatherings open to all high school teens. Each Life Night includes dinner, games, a talk, prayer, and a consistent small group component whereby teens grow in friendship, faith, and discipleship. Content is based around a semester theme. Teens are encouraged to attend the 5:30pm Sunday Mass at St. Francis prior to Life Night.

Intentional DiscipleshipIntentional Discipleship is an opportunity for upperclassmen to meet regularly with an adult disciple (Safe Parish trained) for ongoing, specific formation, usually 1-2 times per month. This is scheduled with the teen, their family, and the Core Member. The content is catered to areas in which the teen desires to grow in understanding. These meetings can take place at either Our Lady of Light campus or at a public space like a coffee shop - regardless of location, a second Safe Parish adult is always present in the space.
Based on your schedule - reach out to Matthew Himes if you are interested in Intentional Discipleship."? |
