Upcoming Events:

Last Sunday, 13 members of our youth group met to help undecorate the church. Thank you to all the students that helped out with this service project.

Additionally, they made Graduation cards for Rachel, a Livonia High School student who has been battling cancer and will go through commencements this week. We hope these cards will bring her much happiness on her special day.

YG members check your email and text for updates on upcoming meetings and any change of dates or times. We have run into some scheduling conflicts from our original calendar. If you have any questions, do not hesitate to call an adult leader.

Thank you to all parishioners who have donated so far to our Bottle Drive. We will continue to collect cans and bottles until February 5,with all proceeds going to help defray the cost of our student’s fees for the CYO Rainbow Conference and other YG activities. If you have clean cans and bottles that are cluttering your garage or house, let us take them off your hands. Please bag and label them “Youth Group” and drop them off in the vestibule or call Marcia Santostasi to arrange for pick up.

It’s not too late to sponsor a high school student for the Annual CYO Rainbow Conference XXX being held February 11-12,
2012. This year’s theme is “Look Past the Cover”. It is a two day conference filled with faith, fellowship and fun, shared with over 1200 high school students throughout the Archdiocese. We have 17 YG members that will be attending this year. The cost to send one student is $145.00. Our goal is to cover each student’s fees beyond their $35 deposit. If you are able to assist in anyway and have it in your budget to sponsor a student, contact Marcia Santostasi @313-277-3844 to find out how.

Youth Group is open to all parish students in grades 9-12th. YG is a community of our parish teens from various high schools who meet twice monthly for service projects and social events. Working collaboratively, we share a common bond of living our faith, fellowship and having fun while we provide service within our community and parish. Remember it is never too late in your high school career to join youth group. You can earn needed service hours for high school. More importantly, you will be doing service for your parish and community.
