Come grow in your faith with others your age! Our ministry is split into two main parts: Large Group Events and Small Group Discussion
At Large Group Events, everyone gathers for food, games, talks, prayer, and more!
Our Small Group Discussions are held at various places and times. This time is used to build friendships and get a better chance to discuss the faith in depth. By signing up using the link further down this page, you can partake in a group of your own with others on the same path!

Meet Our Youth Ministers
Derek Probst
Email: dprobst@kcascension.org Phone: (913)-681-7683 ext. 119 Hi all, I'm Derek! I was born and raised on a farm in the small town of LeMars, Iowa. I've adjusted to life in the big city just fine (although the traffic does still get to me sometimes). I have been very blessed to have my Catholic faith be a large part of my life from youth and I'm excited to share the person of Christ with everyone I can! I could yammer on about myself forever if given the opportunity. Rather than that though, swing by one of our events, introduce yourself, and I'll talk your ears off! (Also, keep me in your prayers! I'm getting married this fall and super hyped about it!)

Hi! I'm Mary Beth! I am from Topeka, KS. I recently graduated from Kansas State University (Go Cats')! I love baking, dancing, and making coffee! If you see me outside of the Church, I am probably shopping, at a country music festival, or walking my dog named, "Mack."
Be strong and courageous; do not be afraid, nor lose heart; for the LORD your God is with you wherever you go.
Joshua 1:9
