What is the Riz Youth Peer Ministry Team?
Great question!
It is a leadership team for young people who want to serve and go further in their faith. They want to take ownership of their faith in real and actionable ways.
This is a group of young people committed to telling other young people in our parish community and the wider community more about Jesus. They do stuff like planning fun games or skits, leading some small groups, coming up with and planning fun outings or service opportunities, and leading Sanctuary nights.
We generally meet on Wednesdays throughout the school year from 6-7:15 pm. There are some nights that schedule is disrupted but for the most part that’s when we meet.
Is It For Me?
There are some very basic qualifications to join our team. We really want to make this available for everyone but for the sake of consistency and planning we did have to come up some requirements.
- You need to be in the 10-12th grade.
- You need to be able to be at the meetings MOST (not every but most) Wednesday nights.
- You should be (or plan) to be actively involved in our Sanctuary group.
- You need to have a desire to grow in your faith.
- You need to contribute to the efforts of the group. This is not for people who just want to hang out.
How To Join
There is a small application process to join our team. You basically fill out some forms where you parents give you permission to be part of our team and meet with us on those Wednesday nights. There’s also some questions so we get to know you and about your leadership background.
