"The BOLD team is a group of fun, faith filled teenagers who gather together to serve Christ and His Church. As a group, we lead small group activities and
discussions for 7^th - 8^th grade Faith
Formation classes, chaperone field trips, and complete community service work. I
decided to join the BOLD team to stay connected with the youth ministry at St. John's after I completed Faith Formation and Confirmation. The BOLD team has helped to solidify my faith because, in
order to be an example for others, you must first must have a solid foundation for your own faith. I chose to volunteer at St. John's because not only do Brad & Libby make it a ton of fun, but I get to deepen my faith while helping others grow in theirs!"
