What is Life Teen?


Life Teen is a Catholic high school youth ministry program. It provides a safe fun place for youth to find a solid Catholic community, to get answers to their questions about faith, and, most importantly, to experience Jesus in a profound and personal way. Our Life Night resources speak to the physical, psychological, cognitive, relational, and spiritual maturation of high school youth. Life Teen presents our Catholic teaching in a way that young people can understand. Students meet on Sunday nights after the 5pm Life Teen mass, downstairs in the Life Teen Room. We start each Life Night with dinner and fellowship before moving into the session.


For additional information contact our Youth Minister, Amy Hardin at 770.978.6751 x43 or email Amy at ahardinyouthminister@stolivers.com.

What is EDGE?


Edge is an exciting faith formation program for Middle School students. Students meet on Wednesday nights for a general faith teaching and then occasionally break out into small groups for discussion. In addition to meeting weekly, students gather periodically for spiritual, social and/or service opportunities.


EDGE class meets on Wednesdays from 6:00pm to 7:00pm in the Kane-Beltran Family Center unless otherwise noted.
