Who We Are
We Believe that our youth are an essential part of the faith community here at St. John Neumann Catholic Church. Youth Ministry is a safe and welcoming place where young people can make and develop positive relationships with each other, our loving God, and His Church.
We Serve our high school youth by providing a place where their emotional, physical, and spiritual needs are met. As a reflection of the love and support that our Lord, parish, and community have given us, we gladly serve them all through joyful, Christian service.
We Offer our youth a variety of opportunities to help them understand, appreciate, and experience that they are not only the Church of the future, but they are the Church with a future.

HSM Sunday (Our weekly event)
High School Ministry's (HSM) weekly event is called HSM Sunday. After the 5:00 pm Mass, our teens gather in Morris Hall for our event. We dismiss the teens at 7:45 pm. Snacks (the really bad-for-you kind that kids love, but also Mom-approved fruit!) and drinks are provided every week.
At HSM Sunday, our parish provides a place for teens to go deeper in their faith, and learn to share their faith with their peers through teachings, witness talks, and interactive discussions. We are not afraid to talk about issues facing our teens today and we give them the tools to deal with them in the real world.
Our HSM Sundays cover all sorts of subjects - Church teachings, social issues of the day, and much more. We are here to encourage teens to go deeper in their relationship with Christ and His Church, and to challenge them to live their faith as they carry out their daily lives. Our amazing adult Team Members, strive to create an atmosphere of love and acceptance - we are here to assist them in their faith journey.
Besides our regular Sunday event, HSM has a variety of social, service, and spiritual events. Check below for more details!
