FOR GOD AND YOUTH

On these pages are found activities and events involving the greatest asset of our parish – our youth. In conjunction with our excellent religious education program, we offer opportunities for youth to be themselves in a faith filled and fun environment involving a mixture of liturgical and social activities.

Baptism catechesis is offered for parents of those about to be baptized. A "Baby Bawl" is held twice yearly where parents of the newly baptized meet for a light social with babies and their "prayer partners" in attendance. A Playgroup meets weekly where parents can socialize as their young ones play in a friendly environment. We celebrate the Children’s Liturgy of the Word at Mass each Sunday for those age 5-12.  And, our Youth Choir praises God in song monthly at the 4PM Sunday liturgy.

The heart of our youth programs lays in our Religious Education program, where students from grades K through 10 are involved in a variety of classroom, spiritual, and social activities. From this group exist over 60 Altar Servers, committed to show reverence and respect for the Lord in their service at His table. Finally, and most importantly, we offer youngsters from grades 6 through 12 an opportunity for voluntary membership in our Senior and Junior Youth Groups.  The goal of our youth programs is to foster the personal and spiritual growth of each young person, and to draw him or her to participation in the mission of our faith community.  We accomplish this through a blend of social, spiritual, and service activities.  A typical year involves Youth Masses, prayer opportunities, ski weekend, snow tubing, Walk for Hunger, Harbor Cruise, whitewater rafting, pancake breakfasts, amusement parks, skating, fun trips, hospitality hosting, and more.  Currently, over 100 members are active in our junior (grades 6-8) and senior (grades 9-12) youth groups.

For further questions, to volunteer, or for any other purpose, please feel free to contact the parish office at 978-897 2171.

Our young people are our greatest asset.  They are not only the future leaders of our Church, but are the Church, right here, and right now.  We are proud of each one of them, God’s precious gift to us. Our priests, deacon, staff, catechists, and parish volunteers are committed to lead, guide, and respect them always. Welcome to Saint Bridget
