This group will be presenting Bible Stories and the Word of God through the medium of the puppet. We will support each other through a variety of activities, spiritual and social. We will be active in the community, providing service where needed. We will be positive representatives of our church and role models for the younger members of the congregation. They process, bear a torch or cross, light candles, and serve in various other capacities.
Special training is offered to junior high, senior high, and young college-age youth.
Acolytes serve a key role in the worship service. The training and experience offers an excellent educational and spiritual opportunity. A variety of additional fun-filled social and exciting service opportunities are scheduled for and by our youth throughout the year. St. Francis youth also participate in Diocesan youth even bringing us together with teenagers from other parishes.
