Youth ministry at Saint Cecilia aims to (1) empower young people to live as disciples of Jesus Christ in our world today, (2) draw young people to responsible participation in the life, mission, and work of the faith community; and (3) foster the personal and spiritual growth of each young person through our Life Teen, Confirmation and junior high faith formation programs. By reaching out to every Catholic teenager in our area, our dozens of volunteers work tirelessly, and prayerfully, to bring the good news of Jesus Christ to every Catholic teenager in our area. At both the high school and middle school level, our events are a solid, Spirit-filled balance of fun & fellowship alongside catechesis & worship.
When interacting with young people, we hope to be a witness that the Church is alive among them. We work to show them just how much they are loved by the God who created them, not by anything that they do, but by simply being his beloved Child. We share our conviction that the Gospel is never boring, and that by deepening their relationship with Christ, especially through the Sacraments of the Church, they will find joy, hope & peace beyond their imagination.

Youth ministry isn't just "one more activity" in their week; its meant to bring everything together and give more purpose & God-filled energy to their daily lives.
For more information & weekly updates on our youth ministry program, please contact Patty Streit at 515/232.3514 or pstreit@stceciliaparish.org to be added to our weekly e-mail distribution list.
God bless your day!
