  What is virtual High School Youth Group? 

  Virtual High School Youth Group is our way of continually building a community in faith and fellowship with one another, even when we can’t meet in person, and to use as a constant source of faith resources, fun, and fellowship! Our virtual youth group is hosted on a private Discord Server, called “The Guild of St. George.” Go to our High School Youth Group page to learn more. 

   

  Is there a virtual Middle School Youth Group? 

  No. And we will not create a virtual middle school youth group due to rules & regulations related to the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA).

  Do you participate in the March for Life in DC? 

  We do! This year (2020/2021) there will not be the large pilgrimage that is usually done, but we will do something to acknowledge the local March for Life and have a pro-life themed event around that same time. 

   

  Can I earn service hours through youth group? 

  Whenever we have service projects, mission trips, etc., you can earn service hours through our youth ministries. High school students can also earn service hours through our Teen Leadership Team that serves our youth groups.
