St. Elizabeth Seton Branches Youth Group
            High School youth and their adult facilitators meet at least twelve times during the school year to discuss topics from their own experiences and relate them to their faith.  The meetings begin with a prayer and end with a social hour.  Through these meetings, the teens have the opportunity to continue their religious education and to meet other teens through social events.

High School Activities
            The parish sponsors many social activities throughout the year for high school students, including canoe trips, trips to water parks, amusement parks, sporting events, ice skating parties, picnics, barbecues, and a softball league.  Activities are published in the bulletin so that teens and chaperons may sign up for each activity on an individual basis.

High School Service Projects
            Various service projects are planned for high school students and their adult chaperons and facilitators so that they can experience the fun of having a faith that results in action.  They cook for a soup kitchen twice each month, walk in the local pledge walk for AIDS, help residents of Oak Forest Hospital play bingo once every other month, and support the local food pantry.  In the past, students have participated in parish-sponsored week-long trips to Appalachia, where they worked to bring hope to the residents through building projects, home visits, painting and cleaning projects, and prayer and companionship.
