John Bosco Youth Group is an awesome place to meet Catholic teens who are growing in their faith a little more each day. The Youth Group brings teens together each week to learn about their faith, to grow in their faith and in community, and to strengthen their faith so they can go out into the world and be "Fishers of men" -Matthew 4:19
The St. John Bosco Youth Group meets every Monday evening
from 7:00-9:30 pm at our Lady of Lourdes Cafeteria. The Youth Group is open to all teens ages 12-18. John Bosco's message:
"I was a person like you. I tried to give meaning to my life. With God's help I decided against having my own family to become a father, a brother and a friend to those who do not have a father, brothers or friends. If you want to be like me we will walk together sharing our life with people living in South American shanty towns, with lepers in India or with so many poor people living in the slums of an Italian city: people deprived of affection, of meaning in life, poor people who need God and you to go on living. In any case, if you do not feel like living as I did, I still want to remind you of a very important truth: life, this great gift which comes from God, is to be spent well. You will spend it well if you do not hide egoistically in your shell but open yourself to love, committing yourself to the good of the one who is poorer than you."
