Christ the King Senior Youth Group

Youth Group for 2018 has come to an end! Thank you for all of your support! Wishing you a joyful Christmas on behalf of the Senior Youth Group! We will resume Youth Group in the New Year!  


Youth Group Start of Term Four 2018

At the start of Term Four, we celebrated Guy Fawkes Day with Sparkles and fun! Take a look at some of the photos below! All High School and Year 8 Students welcome to Senior Youth Group in Term 4 on Monday Nights! 
​For the fourth year in a row, Christ the King will be taking a group of young people to Life Teen Summer Camp on the Kapiti Coast, 15th-19th January 2019.

Life Teen Summer Camp is an annual Catholic Youth Camp that seeks to engage young people in their faith and parish community. At Summer Camp our youth grow in faith and fellowship through team building activities, ropes courses, the Art Barn, messy games and sports.
​In past years our group have treasured the opportunities they received to personally encounter Christ in the Sacraments, Eucharistic Adoration, praise and worship, personal prayer and in the goodness of each other!
If you are interested in helping our young people financially get to Life Teen Summer Camp in 2019, then please feel free to get in touch with the Youth Coordinator. Thank you for your generosity!

​"My highlight of the year with CTK Youth Group would have to be all the unbreakable bonds and friendships I've made through the year, which I can openly and happily share my faith with. Especially those in which I made or deepened the bond with at Life Teen and KICKSTART Camps. The friendships I have made this year I know will last a lifetime."

​-Annabelle O'Neill, Yr 12, Student Core Team 
This programme is run by our Youth Coordinator, Kaelyn, supported by a group of Young adults who make up our Parish Youth Core Team.

Our Youth Group aims to journey with and engage young people in their faith and relationship with Jesus Christ.
In 2016 through small group discussions, games/activities, teachings, music and prayer experiences, our young people have explored the themes of: 'The Power of Prayer', 'The Word', 'Jeremiah 33:3' and 'Philippians 3.14'.

We have had a number of fantastic guest speakers come and share teachings and testimonies with us this year too!

We also have other regular events and activities throughout the year such as: our monthly Youth Mass( 9am every 2nd Sunday of the month), our annual Parish Youth Camp, Worship Nights and other social outings.
