That Special Place

dedicated to St. Robert's, St. John's,
and Holy Redeemer Youth Groups in Michigan

A place where friendships are made, sometimes everlasting
A place where everone is welcome, no one is left out
A place of encouragement to keep striving forward
A place of support, someone is always there to lean on
A place of joy, remember all the fun and those crazy games
A place to shine out, do it in your own way
A place of prayer, ever closer to God's ear
The mountain of faith over the valley of fear
A place of refuge, from the pressures of home and school
A place of love, everyone loves one another here
A place to laugh
A place to cry
A place to realize your never alone
A place of miracles, sometimes beyond what our eyes can see
All this describes what Youth Group really is.
But there is one more thing that this place has always been
It is the one place where Christ comes in,
To let us see, hear, feel, and touch a piece of Heaven.
