Dear SJHSYM Parents and Students,
It is time for another update on the program. I hope all the first year students enjoyed their week off from HSYM while the Confirmation Retreat was going on, and I hope all the 2nd Year parents enjoyed their weekend off from their 2nd year teens. The Confirmation Retreat was wonderful down outside Julian, Ca, at the Whispering Winds Catholic Retreat Center. Again, the facility did a great job at housing, feeding, and putting on a great retreat. Thanks to Kevin and his Leader Staff for doing an amazing job. Thank You Fr. Paul for coming down to the retreat and doing a wonderful outdoor Mass with the students. I am sure it was a Mass they will not forget. I would also like to thank the SJHSYM Leaders who also helped on the retreat (Brandon, Kilian, Emily, Will, Asehli, Mark, & Kyle).
Here is some additional information for upcoming weeks. If your teen needs service hours we have one more Fish Fry (3/26) this Friday. Please start the evening out by coming to the Servite prayer service in honor of Our Lady of Sorrows at the Foot of the Cross. The service lasts about 1/2 hour and honors the courage, love, and compassion of our Blessed Mother at the moment of her Son’s Passion. This is a new prayer service being introduced to the parish by Fr. Frank. The SJHSYM Living Stations of the Cross will take place on Good Friday at noon. Please bring the family for a special afternoon of prayer, music, and reflection as the students do the Stations of the Cross. All parishioners are invited. Our next meeting will be April 18th; this will be a Teen Mass/ Social/ Fellowship Sunday. Please do not miss, especially if you have already missed one. Teens must be at the Parish Center by 4:30pm. Our Fellowship Project will be attending the Baptism of 1st Year Student Nicholas Mares followed by a great Social Dinner to celebrate the receiving of his First Sacrament. I will send out additional emails to all Parents and Students regarding some additional service opportunities, class dates, and Confirmation info so please read them.
