Youth

SHINE 2023 a HUGE Success! ☀️


Today wraps up the third annual SHINE youth summer service week for 7th grade, 8th grade, and high school teens. Over 85 teens and adult volunteers came together to serve others, grow in faith, and have a blast. We attended daily Mass, volunteered at Beacon Place playing games and serving ice cream sundaes, mulched around campus, made cards to show God's love for prisoners, organized the food pantry, built beds, cleaned parish vehicles, purged old storage items, weeded the garden, cleaned statues, served lemonade to food pantry guests, created emergency kits for low-income families, cleaned the pews in church, and SO MUCH MORE! Thank you so much to everyone who helped make SHINE 2023 a success! View more photos.

He used the funds to purchase more than 2,000 diapers, 5,000 wipes, along with numerous rolls of toilet paper and paper towels.
