LifeTeen - End of Semester

With Exams over and High School Teens looking forward to summer - we had our end of Semester LifeTeen social Saturday evening with a relaxed time of food - Sports and time for good fellowship among the teens.  As is our custom - we had a special prayer of blessing upon the grade 12's who are moving out of LifeTeen and going to College or University. This Saturday was also a time for Grade 8's to come and check out LifeTeen and see how it is different from Edge...  In the picture below can you see some of the Edgers who are looking forward to being part of LifeTeen??? 

The best part is that the teens realize that this is not an end - Mass continues through the summer - and many of the teens also come out for Monday night Ultimate Frisbee. I think we will have some more gatherings - including the Ultimate Frisbee Tournament - with other LifeTeen parishes on August 7th in Orangeville.


Yesterday afternoon I also had the opportunity to spend some time with "SoJust" the Social Justice Committee from St. Michael's Secondary School.  They are a wonderful bunch of students - who are joyful and hope-filled, meeting under the leadership of Urszula Cybulko - their High School Chaplain.  It was neat to hear how they have come together in this first year of St. Michael's and have a strong desire to make real change in our world - for the better!


Peace.
