YOUTH MINISTRY
2026-2027
REGISTRATION FOR CONFIRMATION, HIGH SCHOOL YOUTH GROUP AND MIDDLE SCHOOL YOUTH GROUP IS NOW OPEN FOR 2026-2027!
Forms below are for Confirmation II Students ONLY!
Hi there! My name is Hannah, and I'm so grateful to serve as the Youth Minister here at St. Thomas More. This will be my second year serving as the Youth Minister here!
I've had the joy of serving in youth ministry for several years, and throughout that time I've developed an even deeper love for walking alongside young people as they grow in their faith.
My greatest desire is that every teen who walks through our doors knows they are seen, known, and deeply loved by God. my hope is that youth nights are something teens look forward to coming to not only because it's fun, but because it becomes a place where they can encounter Jesus Christ, build authentic friendships, ask honest questions, and begin developing a personal relationship with Him that lasts far beyond high school.
No matter where your teen is on their faith journey, they are always welcome here. I would love the opportunity to walk alongside them as they continue to discover God's unique plan for their lives. I look forward to meeting your family!
Blessings,
Hannah Favata

Youth Group is a time for teens to belong, build authentic friendships, grow in their faith, and encounter Jesus. Through fun activities, games, prayer, meaningful conversations, service opportunities, retreats, and special events, teens have the opportunity to grow together in a welcoming Catholic community.
Whether your teen is strong in their faith, still figuring things out, or simply looking for a place to connect, there is a place for them here. We would love to have them join us!
(HSYG), (MSYG) & Confirmation all meet on the dates posted above!
SACRAMENT OF CONFIRMATION
Ready to take the next step in your faith?
This is a two-year program and is open to 9th–12th graders.
Registration is online (click the link above). Our Confirmation Preparation Program is designed for teens who have already received the Sacraments of Baptism, Reconciliation, and First Holy Communion and are ready to prepare to receive the Sacrament of Confirmation.
Confirmation Preparation is a two-year journey focused on growing in a personal relationship with Jesus Christ, deepening your understanding of the Catholic faith, and becoming an active disciple within the Church.
Confirmation I & II Classes are combined together and dates are on the calendar posted above. Confirmation students should also attend Youth Nights/Youth Group!
Program Expectations
To complete the program, candidates are expected to:
- Attend at least 70% of Confirmation classes and Youth Group gatherings each year.
- Participate actively in class discussions, prayer, and parish life.
- Choose a confirmation saint and complete a saint project during the second year of preparation.
- Attend any required retreats, service opportunities, and sacramental events as communicated throughout the year.
- Actively attend weekly Sunday mass.
- Selection of a qualified Confirmation sponsor.
- Submission of a newly issued, up-to-date Baptismal Certificate noting the reception of First Holy Communion.
Our hope is that Confirmation preparation is more than simply completing a program. It is an opportunity for each teen to encounter Christ more deeply, strengthen their faith, and embrace the call to sainthood!
