Catechist Leaders Needed

Join our team that helps share the faith with our parish children and teens by becoming a Caterchist.  Assistance is needed in our high school and Confirmation program as well as in K5-8th grade.  Materials, training and support are provided as needed.  A Catholic Formation registration discount is available to parents who volunteer for every class as a catechist or assists a catechist.  Please contact Erica Nelson if interested, enelson@stmaryeg.org.

Becoming Disciples of Christ
"What are you looking for?"
• Jn 1:35-42
It is a question meant for all people of every time and in all places and situations. It is the question put to the two disciples by Jesus. What are you seeking? What is the purpose of your existence? Who are you looking for?  As a community,  teens are invited to explore their faith and grow in virtue through Christ's teachings.

​Finding Good Friends

​Friendship is one of the highest experiences of life. Yet sadly, while most of us have lots of "friends," few of us have the sorts of deep, true friendships we long for.  (Studies of Millennials and Gen Z'ers confirm that true friendship is among their most unmet needs.)

So, what is true friendship, and how do we find it?  What’s unique about Christian friendship?

Father Mike Schmitz:  How to get real friends.

In the latest episode of "The Burrowshire Podcast" my best friend, Fr. Blake, and I discuss:
  • What ancient thinkers such as Plato, Aristotle, Cicero, and Augustine said about friendship
  • Our own deep friendship, and how it evolved
  • Advice on how to find and develop profound friendships yourself
Watch here:  Episode #007 >> True Friendship
