This is ACommunityTS ✝️ Planning a retreat is a journey in itself, and our team is so grateful to this group for hosting our recent day of reflection. It allowed us to step away from planning and to focus on our mission; to bring our youth closer to Christ and make a difference in their lives.

We are counting down the days until we welcome your teens to Teen ACTS 2026. If you’re looking for a place for them to grow, connect, and find community, we would love to have them with us. Registration link is in the bio or scan the QR code.

🎓 Today we celebrate one of our own!

Congratulations to Ulises Hubbard on earning his Master’s Degree in Theology from the University of Notre Dame!

Guadalupe Youth Ministry is incredibly blessed by the servant leadership of both Ulises and Diana. From giving their time, sharing their hearts, and walking with our teens in faith, they continue to show what it means to serve Christ and His Church with love and humility.

And let’s be honest… how cool is it that our teens get to learn the Catholic faith from an actual Master’s-level expert? 📚✝️ But even more important than the degree is the witness of faith, kindness, and dedication that Ulises and Diana bring to our ministry.

Thank you both for saying “yes” to serving our youth. Your impact reaches farther than you know. ✝️❤️👨🏻‍🎓

This retreat is first being offered to teens within our Our Lady of Guadalupe Helotes parish community — because ACTS is about building community within the parish family ✝️💙

There’s more for you.
Come and encounter it.

St. Joseph was a carpenter… and today we got to watch these young men learn what it means to build something with their hands, their effort, and their character. 🪚🔨

At Guadalupe Youth Ministry, we believe God forms teens not only in prayer and worship, but also through community, hard work, mentorship, and simply showing up for one another.

Just like St. Joseph quietly guided and protected the Holy Family, we’re called to guide and support our youth as they grow into the men and women God created them to be.

Sometimes ministry looks like retreats and worship nights.
Sometimes it looks like pulling up, lending a hand, and building together. 💜

From middle school youth group… to Life Teen… to Confirmation… your faith journey doesn’t end after graduation. 🙏

Young Adult Ministry is where faith becomes your own.
A place to keep growing, keep serving, and keep walking with people who want to follow Christ alongside you.

For so many of our teens, youth ministry becomes the foundation — and Young Adult Ministry is the next step. 💙

You don’t have to figure out adulthood alone. You belong here.✝️⛪️🏠

Our Lifeteen group recently explored how small gestures of kindness can help spread the Gospel. It’s fitting that some of our youth visited Saint Thérèse of Lisieux's relics afterward. 🌸 Saint Thérèse of Lisieux – The Little Flower 🌸 Born in France in 1873, St. Thérèse lived a life of love and humility. 🌷 Her “Little Way” teaches us that even small acts like a smile or a kind word can be beautiful offerings to God.
