From The Desk of the Pastor

One of the greatest priorities for our parish at this moment in history is reaching the next generation of Catholics. We are blessed at Mary, Mother of Our Savior Parish to have developed a robust and vibrant youth ministry program that is not only serving the teens of our parish, but is also open to young people from across the Greater Utica Area.

Our vision has always been outward-facing: to create a place where teens from all of our local parishes can encounter Christ, grow in authentic Christian friendship, and be inspired to return to their own parishes as missionary disciples.
