Youth Ministry at OLPH strives to be developmentally appropriate, intergenerational, multicultural, collaborative with other parish groups and the larger community, flexible, and family friendly. It is recognized that the family has the primary responsibility for the faith formation of their youth and is the central place where life and love are celebrated. Youth ministry seeks to lead youth into a deeper faith life within their families, not take them away from their family.
