Youth and Young Adults

Message From Our Youth Minister

Hello everyone, my name is Andrew Barnhart and I am the Director of Youth Ministry for the parish. I just wanted to invite all students of the parish in grades 8 through 12 to participate in youth ministry events! The goal of this program is to help our young people encounter Jesus Christ through faith, catechesis, fellowship, and service.

To this end, I am excited to announce the line up of youth ministry events listed below.

To register for any of the events listed below, please contact Andrew Barnhart via email at abarnhart@stpaulofthecross.com or 412-452-6052.  


Wednesday, July 31: Bike Hike on the Montour Trail  

All students in grades 8-12 are invited to meet at 9:00 AM at Saint Anne church. We will carpool to the Tandem Connection bike shop in Canonsburg and bike a section of the trail, break for refreshments and prayer, and cycle back to the bike shop. We’ll return to Saint Anne church around 1:00 PM.

Students may bring their own bikes and helmets (Mr. Barnhart & chaperones will transport gear) or rent from the bike shop. Free food and rentals!

Please email Mr. Barnhart with any questions and to sign up by July 26th!
