What is Catholics in Action (C.I.A.) Youth Ministry?
-
C.I.A. Youth Ministry is designed to:
1) Introduce teens to Jesus Christ and bring them closer to Him through the Sacraments.
2) Establish meaningful relationships between the teens, growing in fellowship and calling one another on to greater holiness.
3) Help teens develop leadership skills in order to evangelize to others and be the face of Christ in their community and the world.
