Encounter is our high school youth group that meets monthly, typically on the second Sunday, from 7-8:30 p.m. at the Nativity Parish Center. These nights include games, talks, snacks, movies, music and Jesus! Our theme for the year is Life and Death. 

September - Dignity of the Human Person
October - Euthanasia, Death Penalty and Abortion
November - Immigration and Refugees
December - the Poor
January - Anxiety and Depression
February - Death and Judgment
March - Heaven and Hell
April - Suffering and the Cross
May - Purgatory

These gatherings are for high school students interested in meeting new friends, hanging out with old friends, talking about topics you care about, learning more about the Bible and learning how to be better friends with God. We hope to see you!

For high school girls interested in spending time with a smaller group of students to talk about our Catholic faith and the struggles of being a high school girl, we invite you to join a small group.

Sophomores, Juniors and Seniors

This group meets on most Sunday evenings throughout the year. During the summertime (starting May 20) we will meet from 5:30-7:30 p.m. in the Nativity Parish Center. We spend our time cooking dinner, baking yummy treats and read Emily Wilson's book Go Bravely. The cost is $10 for the book and about $5 each week on a grocery item for dinner. If you want to join us, contact Michelle Ross at mross@nativityindy.org. You are always welcome; we just want to make sure you don't show up on a night we decided not to meet.

Beloved calendar for sophomores-seniors can be found in the lefthand column.

Freshmen

Our freshmen group will begin meeting in September once school starts. The leader of this group is Melissa Schneider. We are still working out the plans of how often and when to meet. Once we have finalized details, they will be published here.

We will also begin to offer a small group for high school boys this September. We are still deciding how often and when to meet. If you would like to serve as a small group leader, please contact Michelle Ross at mross@nativityindy.org

We look forward to joining you on this journey as you prepare to be Confirmed in the Catholic Church. Students who are preparing for Confirmation have varying expectations in regards to our Confirmation nights. For fees, registration information and more click here.
