St. Susanna Youth Ministry Mission Statement
To provide a variety of involvement and education opportunities for all 6th -12th graders and their parents;
To provide an atmosphere for the students to experience God and we will encourage them to develop a personal relationship with Jesus Christ, a personal prayer life, and a commitment to the works of justice.
To draw them into responsible participation in the life, mission, and work of the Catholic Church, we will connect students to a peer group of Catholic Christians through programs incorporated under Faith Alive and LIFE.
"The most effective catechetical program for adolescents are integrated into a comprehensive program of pastoral ministry for youth that includes catechesis, community life, evangelization, justice and service, leadership development, pastoral care, and prayer and worship. Such programs aim to empower young people to live as disciples of Jesus Christ in our world today; to draw young people to responsible participation in the life, mission, and work of the Catholic faith community; and to foster the total personal and spiritual growth of each young person." ( National Directory for Catechesis, p. 201)
