YIA mission is to cultivate youth empowerment through a sense of ownership, pride and community service. Our focus is to build leadership skills, and elevate self-esteem by contributing to, and participating in, faith-based activities and fellowship. Through a variety of programs, trips, events and outreach, we seek to foster opportunities for our youth to share their gifts with other youth, our parish and the community at large. We hope that you will allow your children to create lifelong memories with their peers that share their faith. YIA is for children in Middle or High School grades 6 -12. Offer your child/children the opportunity to be apart of their OLC spiritual community with their peers. Please sign them up today!
