The youth ministry aims at bringing together youths from different sectors in life, through a common desire to discover ourselves more, to live a sense of community with other youths, and to follow God, in the spirit of the teachings of St. Augustine, our father. These groups offers the possibility for youths to reflect on who God is asking them to be, as well as the opportunity to share thoughts, reflections and experiences with other youths, who are currently walking a similar path in their life. We keep God as the focus of our meetings and activities, as we strive to discover ourselves more and to be of service to the others.
