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.
