Common questions after a powerful retreat like Teen ACTS are:
How can I continue to live out my faith?
Are there communities that I can be a part of that can help me grow closer to Jesus on a daily basis?
Thankfully, there are, and here are a few options:
St. William’s Youth Ministry
St. William of York Parish in Tewksbury, MA, has a vibrant youth ministry. Its mission is to bring teens in grades 8-12 in the parish and in the surrounding area closer to Christ as a community. The youth group meets regularly on:
Wednesdays, from 7-9pm in the Lower Church
Sundays, at the 5pm Mass until 7pm
In addition, there are other fun outside events and service opportunities that happen throughout the year. A few that have been done in the past are:
Friendsgiving
Trivia Night
Lowell Sock Exchange (service opportunity where we serve the homeless in Lowell, MA)
Watching Passion of the Christ on Good Friday
And many more!

Praise Out Loud Concerts
Praise Out Loud is a powerful, faith-filled praise and worship concert that features live music, a guest speaker, adoration, and opportunities for confession. They are typically from 7-9pm at St. William of York Parish, and they happen once every 4 months. The music is led by worship leader Mike McDuffee and his band, and they are truly amazing, faith-filled nights. The next Praise Out Loud is Friday, April 10.
