The Office of Youth and Young Adult Ministry recently hosted the first ARISE Middle School Rally for 6-8th graders at St. Alphonsus Church in Greenwell Springs. Groups attended from parishes across the diocese for a wonderful day where they encountered the Lord, worshipped through music, attended interesting breakout sessions, and had Mass with Bishop Duca. They ended the night in Adoration with the opportunity for the Sacrament of Reconciliation. Photos by Trey Weaver | Coordinator, Youth and Young Adult Ministry of the Diocese of Baton Rouge
