Who is Core? |
Life Teen is a Catholic-centered program open to teens
(grades 9-12) of all faiths. It is a total youth ministry package. Translation: it takes
care of your spiritual, social, educational, and emotional needs. Come join the largest
and most dynamic Catholic youth program in the country! Over 40,000 teens make the LIFE
Teen Program their home on Sunday nights. LIFE meets every Sunday night, starting with the
6pm Teen Mass and followed by the LIFE Teen Program. Bring yourself and your friends! For
more information, call the youth minister, Ryan Howe at the St.
Theresa Parish office: (602) 840-0850.

What exactly happens at LIFE Teen? |
| Every Sunday night after the 6 pm Teen Mass at St. Theresa, the teens gather in the LIFE Room from 7:30-9 pm. There
we'll be having either an educational, issue, or social night. At an educational night, a
Church teaching is explained, such as Mary's role in the Church. An issue night focuses on
an issue in teens' lives, such as stress, alcohol, or peer pressure. The third type of
night that could be going on is a social night, where we all just hang out and have fun.
Some past social events have included broomball ice hockey, Laser Quest, and at least
three times a year we have a giant party where there's food, music, and games such as sumo
suits and an obstacle course, volleyball, basketball, pool, ping pong, video games, and
lots of people. Regardless of what type of night it is, you're sure to meet people, learn
something, and definitely have a good time. |
What is Core? |
| While the youth minister works hard every day of the week
with the teens of our parish, there is no way that he can do it all by himself. The
Core team is a group of volunteers that plan LIFE nights, organize retreats, get to know
all of the teens that are involved in the program, and invite more teens to join. Almost
all of the Core members started as teens in the program who wanted to stay involved after
they left high school. In addition, some Core members also sing in the choir, edit
LIFE videos, and take pictures for the website. Click
