St. Cletus Life Teen 

Our MissionOur mission is to lead teens closer to Christ and His Church by…
  • Surrounding youth with a safe and welcoming environment leading to Christ-centered relationships
  • Cultivating in them the traditions and beliefs of the Catholic faith
  • Inspiring them to share a life-long love of Christ.



We accomplish this in a variety of ways through our different weekly and yearly activities:
  • We have a Sunday Life Teen Mass at11:30am every week. 
  • We meet every Sunday night at 7:00pm for our Life Nights. Life nights are the way we bring the teachings and beliefs of the Catholic Church to the youth in the program.
  • We have several retreats throughout the year to help teens experience Christ in a deeper way. We have a fall retreat, a Luke 18 retreat for 7th and 8th graders, and a summer Steubenville conference. All of these activities are geared towards leading teens closer to Christ.



Our program is whole-heartedly supported by the parish and is run by our Director of Youth Ministry, Bob Hamer. Bob is assisted by a dedicated group of volunteers called the Core Team. The Core Team is made up of young adults and some not so young adults who are a part of the parish. They lead small groups, plan events, and help teens build a relationship with Christ and His Church.
