PEER MINISTRY LEADERSHIP
TEAM:
Our High School Peer Ministers are young people who
have received the Sacrament of Confirmation and have a desire to
serve their peers as young disciples. They are involved with the
planning and presentation of the youth Confirmation program, Youth
Drop-In Nights, and various other Youth Ministry programs and
activities. Many of these youth participate in youth leadership
training such as High-LI (High School Leadership Institute) and JAW
(Justice Action Week) sponsored by the Archdiocese of Baltimore,
Division of Youth and Young Adult Ministry. Peer Ministry Leadership Team Meetings: We meet
the first Tuesday of the month from 6:00 to 7:00 p.m. in the Kateri
room. If you wish to join this group or would like more
information on peer ministry, contact Ken in the Youth Ministry Office.
