Vision for Youth Ministry
An inviting home for youth to be disciples of Jesus Christ through the Church.
Mission:
We exist to aid young people to meet, know, love, and serve Jesus.
Values:
- Go: We are on a mission to help youth encounter Jesus. We cannot wait for them to come to us but we have to go to them.
- Encounter: We seek to encounter young people and help them live a life of discipleship with Jesus.
- Home: We create spaces where youth feel/know they are known and loved as they are, while always being invited to take the next step towards the flourishing life Jesus has for them.
- Fidelity: We are faithful to the community, to the team, and to the magisterium in all we do.

Cub Scout Pack 152
Pack membership is open to boys and girls from kindergarten to 5th grade. Cub Scouting is fun for the entire family. In Scouting, boys and girls start with their best right now selves and grow into their very best future selves. It’s fun, hands-on learning and achievement that puts kids in the middle of the action and prepares them for today-and for life.
For more information go to beascout.org for contact information of leaders and more information about cub-scouting.
Boy Scout Troop 152
Scouts BSA is the traditional Scouting experience for youth in the fifth grade through high school, 11 to 17 years old. Service, community engagement and leadership development become increasingly important parts of the program as youth lead their own activities and work their way toward earning Scouting’s highest rank, Eagle Scout. To join a boy must apply online with parents’ consent at beascout.org and be between the ages of 11-17. Being a Scout means you are a member of a worldwide youth movement that stands for certain values and beliefs.
For more information about Pack 152 or Troop 152 go online to beascout.org for contact information and how to join. Applications can be filled out and fees paid for online. Personal visits to a Troop/Den meeting are Welcome.
