The Core Team

The LifeTeen Core Team is a group of dedicated adults who serve the high school and middle school youth of Saint Francis of Assisi Parish. A Core Team member helps plan LifeNights, lead small groups at confirmation and Edge, assists with retreats, and also serves as a mentor to youth.

The mission of the Core Team is to build solid, Christ-centered relationships with the teenagers they come in contact with. We firmly believe that relationships are central to faith development, and seek to help teenagers walk in their faith journey.

The Core Team is unlike other volunteer positions; it is the fulfillment of a person's baptismal call to service, and many Core Team members will tell you that joining the Core Team is a decision they have not regretted. Because of this, a discernment process happens whenever someone volunteers for the Core Team so they can decide if it is an area of ministry they are truly called to. Core Team members serve on LifeNights and EDGE for a full year, and on Confirmation for a semester.

For a current listing of our Core Team at St. Francis, and a little bit about who they are, please check their biographies on the right hand column.

The Core Team is open to any confirmed adult Catholic who is at least two years out of high school. If you are interested in helping out, please contact Joel Stepanek for more information.
