Our Sunday 5pm Youth Mass is a deliberately youth-centered liturgy, with our young people central to and actively involved in all aspects of the Mass.
From the music, to the homilies, to the Spirit-filled sense of vibrancy and joy, we are prayerfully approaching a liturgy that touches the hearts and minds of our young people and all who come to celebrate the Mass together.
Our hope is that this full, active participation in the liturgy of the Eucharist – the source and summit of Christian life – will foster in our young people a lived connection to Christ Jesus and the community of the Church, and help them to grow in faith as young adults.
Our Sunday 5pm Mass is a truly collaborative liturgy, normally moving from week to week between St. John Church and St. Paul Church from mid-September through mid-May:
On the 1st, 3rd and 5th Sundays of the month, the Sunday 5pm Mass is at St. John the Evangelist Church
On the 2nd and 4th Sundays of the month, the Sunday 5pm Mass is at St. Paul Church
Please visit the Sunday 5pm Youth Mass Calendar page for a calendar that displays the complete schedule – you can view, print, and subscribe to the Google calendar.
All are encouraged to experience and support this initiative with their prayers and their presence.
