St. Patrick Youth Group, better known as SPY, is a High School Youth Program for all teens in grades 9 - 12. Our program is a comprehensive program, consisting of the following:
- Catechetical topics where the teens learn about the Church, Sacraments and Traditions
- Life issues where we cover topics the teens may be facing, including peer pressure, drugs or dating
- Social - There always has to be some fun, including activities like games, music and food.
Intertwined with the regular SPY Sunday meetings, the teens can also expect retreats, service hour opportunities, and community involvement. The SPY program is part of the Confirmation formation for the teens, especially in 9th and 10th grades, as it is part of the 2 year Diocesan Formation requirement for Confirmation.SPY meets typically on Sunday evenings during the school year. Our usual start time is immediately following the 5:00pm Mass and we finish up each evening by 8:15pm. Occasionall, we have a morning activity, instead, and attend Mass as a group.
Our primary means of communicating with parents and teens is through the Remind system, formerly known as "Remind 101". You can find setup instructions for SPY at /remind-instructions-and-information We also have a private Facebook page that you can be a part of called "SPY Communications". Search for it on Facebook and request to be a member.
