OUR ANNUAL THEME FOR THE LITURGICAL YEAR 2024- 25 Sanctuary, our annual theme for 2024-25, symbolizes the refuge that teens find in Christ. It transcends from the sacred altars of our Parish into the secular aspects of their daily lives, bringing peace amidst chaos, order amidst disorder, and love amid fear. Sanctuary is a beacon of Divine Shelter, offering us refuge in times of trial. It celebrates the sanctity of our Inner Sanctuary, turning the ordinary into Sacred Space and inspiring hope and transformation.
