"Life Teen is an international Catholic ministry that serves the
church and leads teens closer to Christ by providing resources and
training that encourage vibrant Eucharistic celebrations and
opportunities for teens to grow in their faith." - from lifeteen.com
LIFE TEEN is a Catholic youth ministry program that began in 1985 at
St. Timothy's Catholic Church in Mesa, Arizona out of a need for young
people to feel loved in the Catholic church. There are now over 900
parishes around the world that have adopted the LIFE TEEN program,
which is geared towards high school teens in grades 9-12.
LIFE TEEN began here at Christ the King on April 15, 2007 and has
continued with great success since then every Sunday night. In the LIFE
TEEN philosophy the Mass and the
entire program are designed to address the specific needs of teens
today. This new vision of teen ministry allows the teen to immerse him
or herself in the life of the parish and, on a larger scale, of the
Church. LIFE TEEN provides our teens with a "Catholic Identity".
"Young people of America and the World, listen to what Christ the redeemer, is saying to you."
