*** Life Teen at HNJ is currently on hiatus for 2026-2027. We hope to relaunch the program next year! ***
🌎 What is Life Teen?
Life Teen is an international Catholic youth ministry movement present in over 2,000 parishes across 30 countries, all dedicated to helping teens encounter Christ and discover the joy of the Gospel.
Life Teen provides high school teens with real opportunities to explore their faith, connect with a vibrant community, and grow into the young men and women God created them to be.
✝️ Our Mission
To lead teens closer to Christ by creating a space where they can:
Explore their Catholic faith
Grow in prayer and worship
Build authentic community
Serve with generosity
All anchored firmly in the sacramental life of the Church and the core values of Life Teen.
🌱 Our Vision
We believe teens are not just the future of the Church — they are the now of the Church.
Through Life Nights, retreats, praise and worship, small groups, and parish involvement, we seek to ignite a lifelong journey of discipleship that will transform our teens — and through them, the world.
Stay Connected!
