NATIVITY GS-HIGH SCHOOL YOUTH GROUP
At the beginning of our experience of adulthood, high school is a crucial time of change in life. Teenagers start to re-evaluate their tradition, their personal value and their worldview. At Nativity, we want to guide them to bring to light their experience, and help them see it anew through the truthful and merciful eyes of Christ, who calls them friends.
To guide Nativity’s high schoolers on their journey, Father Emanuele and Sister Teresa invite all teenagers to join in this friendship with Christ and with each other by joining Nativity’s GS/HS youth group.
Meetings:
SUNDAYS, 6–9 pm
Frassati House, 580 W. 3rd Ave. Dr. (during the school year)
We typically eat dinner together, play incredible games, have thought-provoking discussions, and pray together. Throughout the year, we have charitable activities and special events, for example Advent and Lenten retreats, and winter and summer vacations together in the mountains. In the summer 2025, we travel to Italy for the Year of Jubilee.
Membership Fee: $20
Registration fees help pay for materials used by the group during the year so are greatly appreciated. Join anytime.
For more information, please email Cathy Schaffer at c.schaffer@nool.us.
