Life Teen is an international Catholic movement that serves the Church by providing resources and faith experiences that help lead teens closer to Christ. This is accomplished through a vibrant Eucharistic spirituality and by creating opportunities for teens to grow in their faith. Life Teen began in 1985 as a single-parish program in Mesa, Arizona. As it grew in popularity with the teens, people around the country began to take notice. The simple model of a Mass focused on teens and their families, followed by a catechetical session called a "Life Night," remains effective to this day. As more parishes inquired about the ministry, Life Teen began offering national training conferences on this new and comprehensive youth ministry model within a few years. In the past two decades, Life Teen has grown into one of the most prolific Catholic youth ministry programs in the world.

Struggling with a dilemma and afraid to ask for help? Well here's your chance to get some answers! Ask a priest an anonymous question and he will post his response online. This Week's Question I''ve been having a hard time explaining this to people I know who have left the Catholic Church and was hoping you could help. They keep referencing in Acts when it says "Repent, be baptized, and receive the Holy Spirit." With this reference they are saying that infant baptism is not skripturally based in the sense that babies aren''t choosing to repent and be baptized since it''s a choice made by the parents/guardians. Do you know where infant baptized is backed up in the skripture or any more about the practice? Thanks! View Priest's Answer Ask a Question
