There can be no more eloquent witness or testimony to faith than simply “doing unto others” in the name of Christ. It is in the lived, experienced and reflected upon service to others that our teens truly learn who it is that is their neighbor and what it is to be transformed through loving that neighbor.  

Service opportunities that are on this page can be applied towards your ministry service hour goals (hours required for within CCOP), even if it is an opportunity that goes off site. Please check back often for new opportunities as this page will be updated as things become available.

TEEN LECTOR
Are you curious what it means to be a Lector?  You're not just reading a paragraph, you are proclaiming the Word of God!!
Join us immediately following the 6:00p.m. Teen mass on Sunday, August 29 to see what it's all about.  
For joining us, you will receive 1.5 hours of service, just for hearing what it's all about!  At the end of the session, you can decide if you want to sign up to be a Lector.  No pressure!

TEEN CHOIR
Are you on the fence about joining the 6:00p.m. Teen Mass Choir?  Why don't you earn some service hours and test it out!  
If you're not ready to make the commitment to doing it every week, just try it out once or twice and see if you like it, no pressure!  It's a lot of fun, and we promise we will not put you in a "spotlight" position if you're not ready!  Maybe you can be that person that is assigned to clapping only!  Come and make new friends, and celebrate Mass from a much different perspective!  Arrival time is 5:15p.m. at St. Augustine Church, so you can learn the songs in advance.  You are asked to stay for the entire Mass.
SIGN UP HERE
