“Parishes should be a place where young people are welcomed, grow in Jesus Christ, and minister side by side with the adult of the community.”
-US Bishops’ Message to Youth
St. Anthony offers several opportunities for Youth and Families to be engaged in the parish, grow in faith and show care & God’s love through service.
Let no one have contempt for your youth, but set an example for those who believe, in speech, conduct, love, faith & purity.
-1 Timothy 4:12
