Immaculate Conception Youth
Group Some of our activities are: our weekly Youth Group meetings on Sunday evenings, service projects, mission trips, Region 7 Youth Mass, regional and national Catholic Youth Conferences and whatever else we can get into! Our mission is to connect our youth to God, our Catholic faith and each other. High School youth group meets every Sunday from 6:30 to 8:30 pm in Bosco Hall, except for the first Sunday of the month when we go to the regional youth Mass. Middle school youth group currently meets once a month; we are looking for more adult volunteers to help with this ministry. You can also find us on Facebook at Immaculateconception Youthgroup . Favorite Youth Group quotes: "Don't let anyone look down on you because you are young, but set an example for the believers: in speech, in life, in love, and in FAITH." 1Timothy 4:12 "Christ has no body now, but yours. No hands, no feet on earth, but yours. Yours are the eyes through which Christ looks compassion into the world. Yours are the feet with which Christ walks to do good. Yours are the hands with which Christ blesses the world." St Theresa of Avila ”Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that frightens us most. We ask ourselves, ‘Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, and famous?’ Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that people won’t feel insecure around you. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It’s not just in some of us; it’s in all of us. And when we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.” Maryanne Williamson, also used by Nelson Mandela in his 1994 inaugural speech God doesn’t require us to succeed; he only requires that you try.
