We are excited to announce that St. Paul is able to help send 17 teenagers to the national Steubenville Youth Conference in San Diego in July. This Franciscan-led, three-day, sacrament-soaked, prayer-fueled retreat is guaranteed to set our youths’ souls on fire with the love of Jesus Christ through full faith immersion. Every year 50,000 people are impacted by these amazing youth conferences that help provide teens with the tools to grow in a stronger relationship with Our Lord. This is an expensive trip and we are trying to relieve the burden of cost from families through the generosity of parishioners. We ask for your support with upcoming fundraisers to help make this faith changing trip possible for all.
