In today’s second reading, St. Paul says,
“For his sake I have forfeited everything; I have
accounted all else rubbish so that Christ may be
my wealth.” Does my stewardship suggest that I
could say the same?

JAMS (Joseph’s Awesome Middle Schoolers) meets the
3rd Sunday of every month, 6:30 to 9:00 PM, in the Life
Teen room for food, fun, and fellowship.
Confirmation Program
Confirmation students come together on Sunday nights
to learn about their faith and enhance their relationship
with Christ. We offer an opportunity to get to know other
teens, become rooted in the principles of the church, and
preparation for the sacrament of Confirmation. We meet
Sundays at 6:00-8:00 in Marist Hall after the Life Teen
mass. Dinner is provided.
Relentless—a new program!
Relentless is a brand new program for teens who have
already been Confirmed. This is the next step into becoming a faith-filled adult. In this program we give teens
practical tools to use in their faith life, better equip them
for apologetics, help them learn how to make Christcentered decisions in their life, while helping to prepare
them to remain in a close relationship with Christ into
college. The teens become disciple-makers instead of just
disciples. We meet 6:00 PM to 8:00 PM in the Life Teen
Room after the Life Teen mass. Dinner is provided.
Bible Study
This year, we are studying salvation history through couples in the bible. We are discovering how these important couples met each other, what was happening at
that time in history, and how their relationship had an
impact on the future of all Christianity. Our teens are
learning that a lot of stuff happens at the well and that
God's timing is inordinately miraculous. All teens are invited to join us for this insightful bible sharing. We meet
on Wednesdays from 6:30-8:00 in the Life Teen Room.
Saturday, March 19
9:00 AM to noon in
Marist Hall.
Adults 18 years of age and older
Screenings for: Blood Pressure, Cholesterol, Glucose,
