Youth & family discipleship

Chosen

9th - 12th grade

Family Discipleship is the intentional journey of spiritual growth that families embark on together, integrating faith into daily life through practices like worship, prayer, and study. It strengthens familial bonds by fostering open communication, understanding, and support as members navigate life's challenges together. Ultimately, it cultivates a legacy of faith, love, and unity passed down through generations.

CHOSEN is where 9th - 12th grade students experience Christ’s love through community, small groups, and the sacraments. Juniors and Seniors may also take on leadership or mentor roles and greater participation in the life of the parish.

2025-2026 YFD Registration will open September 1, 2025
"Being part of Chosen has been a transformative experience for me. It's not just about learning about my faith; it's about forming deep connections with others who share my beliefs and values. Through Chosen, I've found a sense of belonging and purpose that I didn't know was possible."
