St. Mary's Parish will be hosting the Alpha Youth Series starting on Wednesday, September 18th from 6:30-8:30pm for all youth in grades 7-12, at St. Mary's in the School Gym!

      It will run for 9 consecutive weeks including an Alpha Weekend at the end of October.

      The Alpha Youth Series is designed to engage youth in conversations about life, faith, and Jesus. The Alpha Youth Series has been totally reimagined for today’s youth culture.

      Through 13 sessions filmed in Vancouver, London, Paris, Rome, Israel, and many other incredible locations, the Alpha Youth Series explores timeless questions about life, faith and God for a new generation.

      The series offers compelling stories, images, questions, and discussion topics well spread throughout each episode to better engage youth, helping them think about how these issues relate to their lives as they discuss with their friends and leaders.

      We are looking for many volunteers to assist with everything from inviting the youth in your life to attend Alpha Youth, being part of the prayer team to pray for everyone involved with Alpha, small group hosts and helpers, looking after the A/V, preparing, cooking, and serving meals, helping with set up and clean up.

      Being part of the Alpha team is a powerful way to grow in your own faith and build meaningful relationships with other team members while providing our youth with an opportunity to encounter the love of Christ!

      Please contact Claudia at the St. Mary’s Parish office 250-564-4097 or at cbetz@pgdiocese.bc.ca if you would like to be part of the team.

      Thank you for your support! God Bless!
