North Parish Youth
We believe that an important part of this faith and life journey is for them to be empowered to use their gifts in serving others, and in leadership. We aim to engage them in the life of the Church, not just in the future, but now!
Belonging is important!
Our youth groups are places where you can feel like you belong. it’s where you can explore those tough questions in a safe and loving environment - but still keeping it fun, faith-filled with food being in abundance!

We have a wonderful team of high school leaders (alongside our Paid Youth Leaders) who journey with our Year 5 - 8 students.
No matter where you are on your journey, you are very much welcome to come and hang out!

Exalt
Exalt: Word and Sacrament
Every Wednesday
6pm - 9pm
St Gregory’s Church, BishopdaleWe'd like to invite you all to join us every Wednesday night for our weekly ‘Exalt’ nights. These nights, specifically tailored for our young adults, consist of a Bible Study which takes place from 6-7PM followed by an hour in front of the Blessed Sacrament (XLT's, Praise and Worship, and Silence) which then leads into some time for fellowship with young adults from all over Christchurch. We provide free food and drink for all to enjoy! We invite you to all to come encounter the real presence of Jesus both in His Word and in the Blessed Sacrament, as we spend time in prayer and worship together. This is a perfect opportunity to grow in faith alongside other young Catholics and to learn more about our core beliefs.
We look forward to seeing you there!
