Happy Spring!!

Below is the schedule for youth group from now until the end of the school year. We hope that you and your friends can join us. A friendly reminder to everyone that youth group is a peanut and nut free environment – snacks and cooking/baking activities at youth group will be nut free.

Inquires about youth group can come to our Youth Coordinator, Melissa Green who is available by phone (text or call: 250-682-4866) or email (stpaulscathedralyouth@gmail.com). Unless otherwise noted our Monday gatherings take place in the Cathedral Hall from 7-9pm. This program is open to everyone! You don’t have to be part of the St. Paul’s community to participate in our youth programming!  And you don’t have to make it to every event. Come as you are.
