St. Margaret Mary Alacoque Youth Ministry
Welcome to all things Youth Ministry!
Hi! Welcome! So very excited you are here!
As a parish family, with all of the abundant blessings made available to us to serve so many groups through our many programs, school and services, we cannot forget how important of a responsibility we have to invest in the growth of the next generation, our incredible parish teens.
Sacred Heart of Jesus, we place our trust in You.
Sacred Heart of Jesus, I believe in Your love for me.
Inspired by our parish patron, St. Margaret Mary Alacoque, we have been taught by her example to draw close to the heart of Jesus. So that is what we intend to do by means of retreats, friendly competitions, field trips, weekly meetings, and having some fun along the way.
This webpage serves as a catch all for sign-up links, youth ministry calendars, and FAQ’s being answered.

Camp
Cristo
Rey
Placing our trust in the Sacred Heart of Jesus isn’t just a nice saying at SMMA, but is the core of the foundation we are building here in youth ministry.
One of the ways we start pouring the foundation for high school ministry starts with an awareness for our middle schoolers that they are seen, known and loved by Christ, the King.
Our Camp days have become a chance for 6th, 7th, & 8th graders to encounter this extraordinary love on an ordinary school day.
8th Grade Camp Cristo Rey:
Friday, September 18th
7th Grade Camp Cristo Rey:
Friday, April 9th
6th Grade Camp Cristo Rey:
Friday, April 23rd
