St. Petronille Young Adults seeks to create an intentional community of Catholic young adults (ages 18-35) who actively are growing deeper in their relationship with Christ, His Church, and others. We hope to grow in knowledge, service, spirituality, and community as we journey together towards sainthood and encounter Christ in the sacraments.

Youth Ministry (High School & Middle School)
St. Petronille Youth Ministry seeks to empower high school & middle school teens to become disciples of Christ, cultivate knowledge of God and grow in relationship with Him and other teens, and participate in the sacraments and the Church. Our overall mission is to walk with teens on their journey towards Heaven and to ensure that everyone, no matter how old or young, has a spot at the Table. Our YM program is new and just starting up, so please come see what God is doing at St. Pet’s!
Events
Thursday events: Most Thursday evenings there will be a YM event for middle schoolers or high schoolers. Each Thursday we will alternate between middle school and high school. Please refer to the schedule below to see which week your child has an event! We offer a mix of subjects, from helping the community to creating treats for officers. Each event will feature a talk on an aspect of the Catholic faith and small group discussion. We hope you can join us!
Saturday outings: Once-a-month the YM program will host an outing for both middle and high schoolers to attend. All of these events will be a special time for students to embrace community outside of the church and have fun!
Please reach out to Gabi at 630-469-0404 ext. 2106 or [email protected] for more information on events or to be added to our YM emailing list!
