Thank you for your interest in St. Michael Youth Ministry Core Team. Be sure you have read through the expectations on the Core Team webpage: stmichaelsauburn.com/coreteam. Please know that all information shared in this application will be held in strict confidence by the staff of the Youth Ministry program.

Here are a few important facts about being a member of the Core Team:
• Team members must be at least one year out of high school or older.
• Team members should possess the following qualities: a personal commitment to Jesus Christ, an unconditional love for youth, a love for the Catholic Church, regular participation in Sunday worship, a personal prayer life, freedom from serious sin, regular reading of Scripture, and openness to using the gifts of the Holy Spirit.
• Team members must continue to possess the above-mentioned qualities throughout the duration of their commitment. Team members are free at any time to unconditionally terminate their relationship as a Core Team member. At the same time, the ministry of CYO retains the option to ask you to step out of this ministry if it becomes clear to us that the Lord is not calling you to this specific ministry, or if mitigating circumstances make it unwise for you to continue in this ministry.
• Team members commit to one academic year of weekly CYO ministry. Time commitment is around 7 hours/week, which includes personal formation through AU Campus Ministry programming. Team members are not expected to participate during AU breaks but are asked to attend a Core Team retreat during the summer.
