Launching this fall, "Summit": High School Ministry Nights will serve as Archdiocesan-wide high school ministry nights, similar to the campus ministry nights that take place at many of our local Catholic high schools. These events will take place throughout the year, and will be open to all high school students ingrades 8 through 12. 

The name for this new ministry comes from the Catechism of the Catholic Church 1324, which says: "The Eucharist is the source and summit of the Christian life". These nights will focus on bringing together young people from across the Archdiocese in order to unplug from the constant noise and distractions of the world around them, and invited them to spend time connecting with our Lord in the sacraments, and with each other in fellowship. 

They will include dynamic local speakers, praise & worship, Eucharistic Adoration, the Sacrament of Reconciliation, and time for fellowship with other young people from across the Archdiocese. Food will also be available for purchase. 
 
Be sure to be this year's dates on your calendar, and share them with your young people so they can plan to join us:
