Howdy howdy,
These are all the action items for those wanting to serve as volunteers or St. Helen's Catechists for youth ministry.
#1 If you haven’t filled out the youth ministry core team and volunteer form, please do so! Here is the link: https://sthelen.ccbchurch.com/goto/forms/66/responses/new
#2 August 23rd there’s two different optional Catechist trainings. These are put on by the diocese!
The first training, (this is the one I will be attending) is at St. Michael the Archangel (1801 Sage Rd,. Houston TX). This is a two hour formation designed to support Catechists on practical and simple ways of passing down the Faith using the diocese curriculum! The event is free! I will send something out for those interested in signing up so I can add you guys to the invite on Capernaum.
The other option, is for Youth Ministry Training Day. There are different tracks you can sign up for. I recommend the ‘essential skills track’. Registration is $25 but St. Helen’s will reimburse. Here is the link to register and get more information: https://archgh.swoogo.com/ymtd24/8157242
#3 September 3rd from 6:15-9pm we will have a mini Catechist retreat. We will meet in Braden, have some fellowship, guided scriptural reflection, go to daily mass together, and touch base on some of the logistical aspects of the year!
LAST THING! September 7th we will have parent and student orientation in Helena Hall. 3:30pm for Jr High, and 6:30-8pm for High school!
Let me know if you have any questions! Thank you so much for your willingness to serve.
In Him,
Mitchell Bonvillian
