Our Lady of Lourdes

"The Catholic Youth Organization (CYO) of Our Lady of Lourdes Catholic Church will help middle and high school students to own and defend their faith and grow as a community through fellowship and service"

-- Mission Statement (2013)

     Middle School and High School youth have many opportunities to connect with their peers in youthgroup meetings throughout the school year (Sunday evening at 5:30 PM) as well as various retreats sponsored by the Diocese of Charleston.  

Such highlights in the year include the

• January Stand Up for Life Rally in Columbia, SC,
• Middle and High School Youth Retreats
• The Diocese also sponsors the Middle and High school age Summer Camps as well leadership training opportunities.  
• On many occasions, we have joined hundreds of other Christians for Carowinds Family Day during the Summer months and enjoyed Mass with the Bishop, as well as a huge picnic lunch!
• In October, the parish sponsors the local Stand Up for Life Rally in Greenwood.  It is an opportunity to let your presence be known along Montague Ave. to prayerfully and quietly support a Culture of Life, from natural conception to natural death. 
• The Junior High Youth Retreat occurs in November.
