We are really lucky in our parish to have young people keen to take part in church life.
We have a team of young volunteers that help serve the parish (literally!) at shared lunches and fundraising events – The A Team no less!
We have young people that regularly read at Mass and a host of young servers.
This year 12 of our youngsters are preparing to make their Confirmation and are undertaking a course of study that guides them into looking deeper at their faith. They have also embraced the opportunity to put their faith into action with a fundraising event for the charity Mary’s Meals and a visit to our local drop in centre, Open Door Exmouth.
In return for all this involvement from our youth we give them the chance to Chillout @ Church – the last time we met, we shared pizzas and watched a film together.
We’re looking forward to lots more exciting adventures together and you can follow the fun on our Instagram page: @Confirmation2018 (for those that use the Instagram app).
