The Corpus Christi Youth Council strives to be the hands of Christ, creating discipleship among the parish youth. Through a shared mission with Corpus Christi Catholic Church, the Youth Council seeks to maintain multicultural unity among our youth to promote a worshiping environment to deepen their faith, nurture their spirituality, and live out the Gospel message.
The Corpus Christi Youth Council shall strive to be a working example of the ideals of Youth Ministry set forth by the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops within the document, Renewing the Vision: A Framework for Catholic Youth Ministry. This Youth Council is established firmly on the principle that our young church is the future, thus, we must provide a platform for the youth agenda, voice and presence within our parish

Embrace and sustain a multicultural, intergenerational community of faith and leadership within the young church
Develop a means of communication, collaboration and partnership between youth serving ministries, the parish, and larger communities

The goals of the Youth Council as outlined in the document Renewing the Vision will be to:
Empower young people to live as disciples of Jesus Christ in our world today;
Foster the personal and spiritual growth of our parish youth to build the young church;
