Youth Ministry
Youth Ministry seeks to welcome youth, grades 7th – 12th, to participate in a safe and loving environment where they can come as they are to experience faith sharing, fellowship, and fun. At Our Lady Queen of Peace, youth are empowered to: live as disciples of Jesus Christ in today's world, to grow spiritually and personally, and experience God's love for all of creation.  All are welcome, bring friends!

Young Adult Ministry

Young adult ministry at Our Lady Queen of Peace reaches out to people between the ages of 18-40 who are parish members or live nearby. OLQP young adult ministry seeks to provide opportunities to grow in faith, community, and service. The Sunday 6:00 pm Mass while oriented toward young people, is open to all. Liturgical ministers, choir members, and hospitality volunteers are needed. Young Adult Potluck: On the 3rd Sunday of the month young adults host a potluck dinner and fellowship at 7:15 following Mass. Join us for Young Adult Bible Study and faith sharing, too! Follow us on Facebook at The Many of OLQP and Instagram at joyfulolqp.

Young Adult Retreats and Social Gatherings
Join fellow young adults on both one-day and weekend retreats throughout the year. Our community also gathers to support one another during birthdays, sporting events, and impromptu gatherings after the 6 pm Mass on Sundays. If interested in assisting with event coordination, please contact Rebecca Grant Jenkins, Youth & Young Adult Minister.
