Welcome!
St. Helena’s Youth Ministry strives to provide an environment where teens develop a strong sense of belonging and feel safe. They can ask questions and learn more about the grace of Jesus. Through relationships with their peers and leaders, teens will develop a connectedness to the Body of Christ.
