What is OMT?

OMT is the OPTIONS Ministry Team. This is our Wednesday afternoon drop-in for all middle school students. We currently have kids from 5 middle schools that come on Wednesdays for socialization, a lectionary based discussion (we read and discuss the upcoming Sunday's Gospel) and then talk about current events, play games and just be together. Our meetings start at 4:30 and end at 5:45 PM. All are welcome!  This group is invovled in many parish functions including

• Feed My Starving Children:  We try to go to this most worthy facility at least twice a year to package food for the hungry in our world.
• Project Heifer: During Lent, we collect our loose change to "Make a Change" through this organization.
• Movie days: During the Christmas break and once in a while, during our Wednesday meetings.
• Santa Elves: We are the elves who help Santa at the Pancake Breakfast in December.
• Ushers: The 5:30 Sunday Liturgy has middle and high school ushers.
• And much, much more.
