"Do not let anyone look down on you because you are young, but set an
example for believers in speech, in life, in love, in faith, and in purity."

1 Timothy 4:12-16

High School Ministry Calendar 2008-2009
“Theology of the Body”
Sundays 6:30-8:00 PM

This year our topic and theme for High School Youth Ministry will be “Theology of the Body” (TOB). Theology of the Body for Teens is the first published curriculum which applies John Paul II’s writings to the lives of teenagers, specifically addressing questions relating to chastity and sexuality. It is a multifaceted, twelve-part program. It brings a greater understanding of love, relationships, and the basic meaning of life, so that one is able to appreciate the virtue of chastity, and therefore live it in a more profound and meaningful way.
