Start of a New Year!

Hey Everyone,

I hope you've had a good summer.  As you know there have been some changes to the Youth Ministry program here in Montgomery, specifically our High School Youth Minister Mr. Ryan Bravata has discerned a religious vocation with the Benedictine monks in Cullman, AL and our EDGE Junior High Youth Minister, Shannon Brunson, has moved to Auburn, AL.  We wish both of them the best in all their future endeavors and they will be in our prayers this year.

Despite the lost, we must press forward, doing the great work of God and his Church.  While we continue to search for a Youth Minister, we will try our best to provide the same programs we have had in the past, especially Teen Cafe Wednesday nights at St. Bede and LIFETEEN Sunday nights at Holy Spirit.

Here are some upcoming dates to be aware of:

Make up Retreat for Confirmation: Thursday, August 8: 10 am-12 pm at St. Bede Parish Hall

Confirmation Meeting: For the teenagers enrolling into 9th grade and their parents or those wishing to start the 2 year confirmation program-  Tuesday, August 20th: 6:00 p.m St Bede Parish Hall

Teen Cafe Kickoff- Wednesday, September 4th: 6:30-8:30 at St Bede FLC

I'll be posting more dates as we get them.  If you have any questions contact me at patarensberg@gmail.com.  Thank you for your patience during this time of transistion.

God Bless

Fr. Pat
