Ministry with Young Catholics

​

Youth & Young Adult Ministries at St. Margaret Mary

Welcome to the young church of St. Margaret Mary! Aligned with the Diocese of San Bernardino’s mission of accompaniment, our parish is deeply committed to walking faithfully with our young people as they transition from childhood to young adulthood. By placing our focus on education, friendship, and spiritual formation, we strive to foster lasting transformation, build trusting relationships, and equip the next generation for joyful discipleship and Christian leadership.

Whether you are a student looking for a safe community, a parent seeking family-centered faith formation, or a young adult looking for a spiritual home, there is a place for you in our parish family.
 

Youth Ministry & Confirmation (High School & Middle)

Our Youth Ministry program is grounded in a desire to invite, inspire, affirm, and equip our teens to recognize their unique gifts for ministry, explore their questions about spirituality, and make a real difference in the world.
 

• Mass & Fellowship Nights: Join us for our youth-centered community nights. We gather to grow in faith, share dinner, and build lasting friendships rooted in Christ.

• When & Where: Sundays from 5:00 PM to 8:00 PM. We begin with Mass in the Choir Loft, followed by interactive breakout sessions and activities in the Sacred Heart Center.

• Family-Centered Sacramental Prep: We partner closely with parents as the primary educators of their children, offering robust paths for high school Confirmation alongside supportive parent resources and community connection.
   

Young Adult Ministry (The "YAMily" — Ages 18–39)

Young adulthood is a massive time of transition, finding identity, and navigating a complex world. Our Young Adult Ministry (YAMily) offers a safe, grounded space to deepen your everyday relationship with Jesus Christ through prayer, the Sacraments, and genuine friendships. We welcome you exactly as you are—no special training or background required!
 

• Weekly Gatherings: Join us every week for prayer, a shared dinner, faith sharing, and fellowship as we navigate life's vocations and milestones together.
   

• When & Where: Wednesday evenings from 6:00 PM to 8:00 PM in the Faith Formation Office.​​
