Maronite Youth Organization
MYO will be back in session starting Fall 2025! This is a great opportunity for our teens in grades 8-12 to take ownership over their faith and become the next leaders in our parish community. The 25/26 MYO will build upon the momentum of previous years introducing not one but TWO Catholic, teen-focused curricula designed to engage, nurture, and grow our youth closer to Christ and in fellowship to each other.
Registration forms and permissions slips MUST be handed in for each MYO member.
Communication will be handled via Remind. This allows for effective communication to parents and MYO members without the need for group chats.
Please join our Remind group, download our schedule, and register your child below.
Our next Event:
MYO will kick off Sunday, September 7th, 2025 at 10:30am.
Resources
Meeting Structure
On Sundays, “Venture” (from Ascension Press) will guide our MYO members through Salvation History, recognizing God’s divine plan culminating in our Church today. While these lessons focus on church teaching and salvation history, this is far from typical Sunday school. This curriculum exists to set a foundation for a deeper dive into future discussions. Topics cycle over 5 years, so no student hears the same lesson twice. MYO members will receive their own Venture workbook to follow along as well as a Youth Bible. Sunday lessons will be led by Amanda.
The third Thursday each month is Life Teen night. While Sunday lessons teach us why, teen nights aim to teach us how. Putting a heavier emphasis on activities, discussions, and the sacraments, these sessions encourage our youth to live out their faith and seek a connection to God beyond Sunday. Thursday youth nights will be led by Anthony.
