Youth Ministry Adult Youth Leaders CORE TEAM
The LifeTeen Core Team is a group of adults at St. Raphael’s
that exists in order to help lead teens closer to Christ through
relationships, prayer, and outreach.

CORE Team.
Life Support Board
This group of men and women come together to assist the Youth
Minister and the CORE Team. Providing a root system within the
parish, these members help to network the people and resources
of the parish to build the ministry to our youth. Members of
this ministry spiritually adopt CORE members, pray for them and
mentor them. The mission of this board is to provide:
Affirmation, Guidance, Accountability, Prayer and Encouragement
(AGAPE) to those on the front lines in our Youth Ministry.
Youth
Ministry Affirmation (Life Support)
Catch them doing something good. Members of this ministry team
help to reach out to young people of our parish to say “Happy
Birthday”, “Congratulations” and “Get Well Soon”. When a young
person receives a card from the parish, hopefully they will feel
supported and this can make a real difference.
Youth Ministry Fundraising (Life Support)
Quality ministry requires financial support. Whether it is the
cost of food, birthday cards, or materials needed to put on an
event, we need to raise money to run our ministry. In addition,
the teens need help raising money to attend trips and events.
Join this team to work strategically in raising money to support
our Youth Ministry.
Youth Ministry Hospitality (Life Support)
Reaching the youth of our parish through their stomachs! This
ministry provides food for all of our youth ministry functions.
Members of this ministry team share their welcoming smiles, and
their delicious dishes, which are inspired by their love for
kids.
Youth Ministry Prayer (Life Support)
We believe in the power of prayer. Because of this conviction,
we anonymously support the youth of our parish through our
prayers. We try to have a parishioner pray daily for each young
person in our ministry. We are also trying to establish a
network of these prayer warriors so that when emergencies come
up, they can be notified easily.
Youth Ministry Travel (Life Support)
We travel A LOT! A large portion of our Youth Ministry effort is
in getting teens away from their usual surroundings so that they
can grow deeper in faith. Members of this team assist the Youth
Minister in planning and coordinating one of our Youth Ministry
events. Some of our trips that are most in need of coordinators
are: March for Life (January/Washington DC), Spring
Retreats (in state), Steubenvilie Youth Conference
(Summer/Ohio), Summer Camps (summer/Georgia), Rock the Universe
(September/Orlando) and several others. |
