Core Team members engage with the teens about their lives and journey with them towards God. Core Team members are given a small group at the beginning of the year. Each small group is comprised of up students that are the same biological gender and age group. Core Team members help break down the talk in small group by leading discussion and helping to explain pieces students may not understand.
Working with teenagers can be life changing. Not only will you feel fulfilled making an eternal impact on the youth, but God will also teach you more about yourself, your faith, and you'll have an awesome time doing it!
Here's why: There is not just one type of Core Team member. We really want adults who love God and like teenagers. Grandparents, single dads, football players, stay-at-home moms, engineers, teachers, computer analysts, Aggie fans, Texans' fans, circus performers, bikers, gardeners, golfers....you get the point. If you love God and you like teenagers then you are well on your way to being a great Core Team Member. The students desire the same things we do: love and time. Come spend time with our students and help us show them that they have a home with us, Christ, and CtR.
Who can be on Core Team? YOU.Interested in joining the Core Team?

August 26"I joined Core team to be be there for students who were struggling like I was at their age. All they need is an adult who cares enough to give them time. To see the Lord grab one of his children, to watch them realize that they need and want God sets me on fire. "Read More

November 25I got involved because 20 years ago I was very impacted by youth ministry. It's beautiful to watch the students open up, realize God is real and give their hearts to the Lord. We need good leaders, good Catholics for our kids. I want to leave the world a better place with God as the center of our lives. If we won't teach them, who will?Read More

November 11"Being a mom of three boys, I really enjoy getting to spend time with my group of teen girls each week. It gives me a whole different perspective on the teenage mind and allows me to share my faith with them. I really enjoy learning along with them as well. God calls us to always continue to learn about our faith so to draw us deeper into communion with Him. This is a really great way to do that!Read More
