Upcoming Events
This Advent, the St Anthony of Padua Youth Ministry is inviting youths from grade 7 to 12 for a day retreat full of faith and fellowship in preparation for Jesus' birth. The retreat will explore:
- how hope helps us trust God in the unknown
- how Christ’s peace can shape the way we treat others
- how joy can remain alive even when life is difficult.
It will be held on Saturday, December 5th from 12:30pm to 8:00pm at Holy Name of Jesus Parish. The day will include sessions led by Faith Labs followed by Mass and a potluck dinner.
First deadline will be on Friday, November 20th at 11:59pm if you are interested in receiving a retreat shirt. The final deadline will be on Friday, November 27th at 11:59pm - a week before the retreat!
More information about the retreat can be found on the sign up link. If you have any questions, you can contact the St Anthony of Padua Youth Ministry team at youth@stanthonyvan.com.
