AntiochCoordinators: Cookie and Gary Kinder
Mission: Antioch is the St. Francis de Sales youth ministry that offers teenagers an encounter with Jesus and the opportunity to experience His Church within their own culture. Because it is a parish based ministry, there is a valuable ingredient for continuity with all the attendant opportunities for growth in Christian community, ongoing peer ministry, and assimilation of their treasured gifts into the whole parish faith community.
It is also the second phase of the St. Francis de Sales two-year program mandated by the diocese as the youth commit to receive the Sacrament of Confirmation.
Antioch meets weekly at the church on Sunday evenings from 7-9 P.M. The Confirmation candidates must also attend two Antioch weekends (or one weekend if they attended the 9th Grade Day of Reflection) and complete all service hours. Antioch is open to 10th grade students as well as 11th and 12th grade students who wish to continue their Christian education.
