High School and Middle
School Youth Ministry
Youth Activities Coordinator:
Katie Tang, 274-6520 ext. 318, ktang@olgchurch.org
The goal of the OLG Youth Group
is to help our middle school and high school students
understand how their faith and talents enrich both their own
lives and the lives of all who know them. Our program provides
opportunities through youth group meetings, social outings and
service programs for our teens to live their faith. Middle
school and high school youth group meetings are held monthly
throughout the school year and focus on fellowhsip and team
building activities. Lock-ins, retreats and social outings
(ski trips, Emerald Pointe, Carowinds and Celebration Station)
are held for both middle school and high school students.
Service programs that run throughout the year include Teen
Court, serving dinner to the families at Pathways Shelter and
running bingo games at a local senior center (Bingo Buddies).
Youth volunteers also assist during many church and community
events. Check out the Youth Group News below for upcoming
activities and how to sign up!

OLG YOUTH MASS
Did you know that every month OLG has a Youth Mass at
7PM? Youth Mass is a regular Sunday Parish Mass. The only
difference is that YOU, the youth of our parish serve as
readers, greeters, ushers, choir members and gift bearers. If
you would like to participate in the Youth Mass as a reader,
greeter, usher or gift bearer, please contact Katie Tang at
the number above. The Youth Mass is held once a month at the
Sunday 7PM Mass. All youth of the parish and their families
are invited to come to this Mass and sit together as a group.
Do you sing? Play an instrument? Would you like to participate
in the Youth Mass Choir? Being in the Youth Choir involves
participating in 2 rehearsals a month and also singing in the
choir the day of our scheduled Youth Mass. If you would like
to be a part of the choir, please contact Katie Tang at the
number listed above.
