Welcome to Life Teen at Holy Name of Jesus Parish! We believe that our teens are not just the future of the Church—they are the Church now. Our mission is to create a place where teens can encounter Christ in the Eucharist, build lasting friendships, and grow in faith, purpose, and joy. Inspired by the story of the Road to Emmaus, we walk with our young people just as Jesus walked with His disciples—listening, guiding, and helping them recognize Christ in their lives, especially in the breaking of the bread. Through weekly Life Nights, dynamic teachings, small group discussion, and active participation in the Sunday evening Mass, we accompany young people as they discover who they are in light of God's love. Come and see how faith can come alive at HNJ!
Sundays after the 6 PM Mass • food • friends • faith
Life Teen at Holy Name of Jesus Parish is our high school youth ministry designed to lead teens closer to Christ. Through engaging Life Nights, small group friendships, and dynamic teachings rooted in the Eucharist, we walk with teens during a pivotal time in their lives—just as Jesus walked with His disciples on the road to Emmaus. It’s a place to ask big questions, grow in faith, and find joyful community.
We need adults called Core Team members who are willing to walk with teens in faith, offer support at Life Nights, and help them feel seen, known, and loved. Training and guidance are provided—just bring a heart for Christ and teens!
Check out what’s coming up at HNJ Life Teen—from Life Nights to special events and parish gatherings. Bring a friend!
