Did you know that both Most Blessed Sacrament and Fr. Jim Jugenheimer maintain Facebook pages that provide you with various kinds of information on an almost daily basis? Fr. Jim has begun to post clips of the homilies not only from the weekend Liturgy but also daily Liturgies. You might see an icon commemorating a particular Feastday. You might be asked to keep parish family members in prayer as they have their child baptized, join in the Sacrament of Matrimony or have the Mass of Christian burial for a loved one. Look for "shorts" to advertise upcoming events or highlight a part of the Liturgical Year.
Like us and check in on us often. We are full of surprises! |

One of my strongest convictions in working with high school ministry is the importance of meaningful relationships.
People need to feel welcomed, accepted, and loved. They need to feel like they are included as part of the group or they aren't likely to stay around. BUT, you know what? Welcoming, accepting people, getting involved in each other's lives so we stay around really is not what we are aiming for. It's not just about some "new member retention" project.
Everyone has a baptismal call to serve. Our youth ministers are adults who are responding to theirr baptismal call to serve in youth ministry. They are important role models in teenager's lives and an integral part of our ministry to teens. Their approach to youth ministry is rooted in service, commitment, and dedication to the Church and your teens.
The youth ministers are role models to all our teens. They know that how they live and act as adult Catholics makes a strong impression on teens, and they are commited to passing on the faith and modeling what it means to be in relationship with Christ. With that guiding principle in mind, there are three foundational behaviors you'll see from our youth ministers:
- They are present to the teens.
Youth Ministers are not here to preach, but rather to listen and to guide. They are always present to the teens and willing to relate to them. They work hard at building relationships with teens that help lead the teens closer to Christ. That means they might be present at extra-curricular events, visit them at work, and get together with teens outside of church.
- They develop their own individual relationship with God.
The mission of youth ministry, leading teens closer to Christ, is always in the forefront of a youth minister or catechist's mind. They know that they cannot lead teens somewhere they themselves are not going. For this reason, they consistently work on their own relationships with Christ always seeking to deepen their own faith while constantly praying for the faith of your teen.
- They are defenders and protectors of teens' holiness.
Our youth ministers participate in numerous trainings and workshops designed to teach them how to form healthy relationships with teens. They practice the ministry model outlined by Jesus when he sent his disciples out two by two. Every relationship that a youth minister fosters with a teen is designed to help lead that teen closer to Christ.
There is an even deeper reason relational ministry is core to our mission and ministry with high school students. It is the model of ministry that Jesus gave us in the gospels.
