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.
