What is Life Teen?
Life Teen is an international organization dedicated to strengthening our teens’ Catholic identity while rooting them firmly in Christ and his Church.

At St. Martha, Life Teen is open to all high school teens, meets on Sunday evenings during the school year, and is where the catechetical formation (CCE) for high school students takes place.

Any student beginning the preparation process for Confirmation will spend their first year (the Discipleship Year) attending Life Teen, developing a firm foundation in their faith before moving on for direct preparation for Confirmation in their second year.

Dinner is served before each Life Night around 7:00pm.

What happens at Life Teen?
At our Sunday gatherings (called Life Nights), teens have the option of eating dinner when they arrive. The rest of the night is meant to follow the structure of the Mass in a way that will allow the teens to encounter Christ and learn about their faith, and then live it out. There are four parts to a Life Night:
 

• GATHER: Teens are welcomed to the Life Night, we open in prayer, and the night’s theme is introduced in some way, whether by a game, video, activity, etc.

• PROCLAIM: The message of the night is shared with the teens. Either a speaker or a video will give a teaching on a particular aspect of our Catholic faith.

• BREAK: The teens have the opportunity to “break open” the message of the night, digging deeper and applying it to their own lives. This usually occurs in small groups of 10-12 teens, which are led by catechists.

• SEND: This part of the night focuses on giving the teens concrete ways to apply the message and teaching of the night to their everyday lives. A Life Night always concludes with prayer.
