What is Lifeteen? Lifeteen is a Catholic program for all teens in high school. Lifeteen is a parish program of Our Lady of Mercy Church and is run by Philip Lauto. This program gives kids the opportunity to continue their journey from Wyldlife to grow even deeper in their faith as they enter high school. Lifeteen provides the teens with free time, food, games, prayer, and discussion. Lifeteen kicks off with food, drinks, and free time and then breaks into various games or activities. After the games a discussion is lead by Philip Lauto to more deeply explore the Catholic faith. Topics are usually a more mature exploration of the weekly gospel but also gives the teens the opportunity to request topics themselves so that we can discuss whatever is on their minds. After the lead discussion the topic is then further explored by breaking down into small groups to discuss the topic in a more personal way with group leaders. After the topic we then go into the chapel to pray before the blessed sacrament and also have a moment of silence. Lifeteen also provides opportunities for field trips to places such as Six flags and Splish Splash as wells as retreats to holy hours and camps such as Quo Vadis.
