Lancaster Catholic Youth Group – Mersi in Fidem Lancaster Catholic Youth Group’s mission is to bring the youth in our community into a deep and personal relationship with Jesus by providing opportunities for our youth to have an authentic encounter with Christ through His Church. Our name Mersi in Fidem is Latin meaning Diving into Faith. St. Bernadette partners with other local parishes, including the Basilica of St. Mary of the Assumption to support our youth through a High School and Middle School Youth Ministry program. High School meets on Sunday evenings from 7:30-9 pm. Middle School meets twice a month on the second and fourth Sundays from 5-6:30 pm. This program includes fun, fellowship, and formation. Youth Ministry events are held on the St. Mary Emerald Campus, 324 Gay St., Lancaster. Enter though the side entrance and we meet in rooms 7 & 8.
Permission Forms All youth who are participating in a Youth Ministry activity should complete and return a permission form to the Youth Ministry Team.
