Back to Blogging!
Hi Everyone,
It's been a busy year for me personally and so I let this blog slip through the cracks. Our youth group was as strong as ever but my updates disappeared and for that, I apologize.
For this upcoming youth group year I will be sure to give this blog more attention to provide you all with updates about our group.
FYI - if there is every a meeting cancellation, you can find out about it here.
Hope you're all having a great summer. I'll see you in the Fall!

St. Thomas Providing Service
The youth group has been doing a great job helping the community lately. In November we made casseroles for St. John's Hospice. The casseroles that the youth made were served to homeless and hungry people in Philadelphia. The work the group did was surely appreciated especially at this time of year.
Following the casserole cooking event, the High School youth group members met up at Presbyterian Village to play bingo with the residents there. As usual, having our group there with them brightened their spirits. We'll plan to make another trip back in the spring.
Lastly, we have another opportunity to serve our own parishioners coming up for Christmas. On Saturday, December 13th the youth group will be delivering poinsettia plants to our church members who are either home-bound or who have lost a loved one this year. Bringing this gifts to our parishioners is always a special treat not only for those who receive the plants but for all of the youth group members who take part in this event.
If you can make it, please respond to the evite!
Just for Fun...
The youth group has had a great start during the fall and will continue in the Spring. Before we take a break for Christmas, we will celebrate together on Tuesday 12/16. Stay tuned for details about the party!

Election 2008
Every where we look there are signs supporting one candidate or another. Television commercial breaks fill our living rooms with chatter about why to vote for a certain person for president. It is important to pay attention and to take the time to learn about these politicians. But it is easy to get lost amid the chaos the "blame-game."
Joe Anthony and Charlie Tomlinson have put together our next discussion topic: Election 2008. They'll be talking about different issues, what they mean, and how the Catholic Church suggests that we vote.
While most of our youth group participants are not yet old enough to vote, developing an awareness and an opinion is still of value.
Please come to group ready to participate and ask questions.
