Peer Ministry is a high school youth ministry program for students (sophomore-senior) interested in serving, leading, and supporting their peers as they develop a deeper experience of Jesus Christ and the Catholic Church.

Prospective Peer Ministers should have a commitment to Jesus Christ and His teachings. They should also be committed to the Catholic faith, be open to growing in their faith, have a desire and openness to share that faith with others, be spiritually and emotionally healthy, and be committed to a lifestyle that is pleasing to Christ.

The goal of the Peer Ministry Team is Catholic YOUTH EVANGELIZATION. Through outreaches, ice breakers, skits, games, talks, discussions, prayer, and retreats, Peer Ministers will be exposed to and attempt to expose others to a life-changing encounter with Jesus Christ.

Anyone applying to be a peer minister should note that being part of the team is a significant time commitment and responsibility. Applicants should be committed to their faith life, their walk with Christ, the other members of the team, and to making a difference. You must also be committed to daily prayer and serving your peers. What can you expect to gain from being a Peer Minister? Hard work, lots of fun, the support of a Christian community, a sense of fulfillment and accomplishment, spiritual challenge, the joy of effecting others in a positive way, and personal growth.

The Peer Ministry Team for 2008-2009 has already been discerned. Applications for the 2009-2010 Peer Ministry Team will be available in May 2009. Call Laurie Brown for more information. NOTE: If you wish to be on the Peer Ministry Team in 2009-2010, make sure you are participating in high school youth ministry events in the current 2008-2009 school year.
