St. Francis of Assisi Total Youth Ministry (TYM) is designed
for high school youth. Over 700 St. Francis families have
youth in this age group. These youths attend over a dozen
different high schools. The mission of St. Francis TYM is
to celebrate this diversity, while building a sense of community
by welcoming youth into the life of our parish. Our goal
is to draw the youth into responsible participation in the
life, work, and mission of St. Francis by integrating them
into our parish’s many ministries. Through this participation,
we hope to foster the spiritual and personal growth of the
youth of St. Francis.
WHERE IS TYM HEADING...
St. Francis has recently established a TYM Advisory Board,
which will work closely with the TYM Youth Board to assist
in planning and implementing programs for our youth. The
TYM Boards believe that youth ministry belongs to the parish
and that it is the responsibility of our entire community
to educate our youth. We are excited about the year to come
and hope you will be part of this great ministry with us.
Active involvement of parent and parish volunteers in our
retreats, service projects, and social ministries will make
a huge difference to our youth and to the success of TYM.
