Dearest Brothers and Sisters in Christ,
Welcome to a snapshot of the love of God in each and every young person here in St Mary of the Angels. Praise God for all He has done for St Mary’s; more so for each and everyone of you that has encountered Christ through the Youth & Young Adults Office. To parents, friends, and especially you, the youth and young adults, it is my deepest pleasure to show the fruits of Christ’s love on your lives, all because you have allowed Him to do so! And for you who are reading this message, may you come and seek Christ with open hearts; we are ready to welcome YOU with open arms!
Peace and All Good,
Darrel Ang, Youth & Young Adults Coordinator

Ravished
For Young Adults above 21 years

Ravished is a campfire where young adults huddle to see each other through our new adventures into adulthood. We seek to grow deeper in love with Christ and, as a result, in realisation of our infinite belovedness. We meet every Sunday, 2:30pm to 4:30pm at the Youth Loft for formation, prayer and fellowship.
Come experience the pursuing, relentless love of the Lord together!

Youth Ministries
New Wineskins
“No one sews a piece of unshrunken cloth on an old cloak. If he does, its fullness pulls away, the new from the old, and the tear gets worse. Likewise, no one pours new wine into old wineskins. Otherwise, the wine will burst the skins, and both the wine and the skins are ruined. Rather, new wine is poured into fresh wineskins.” - Matthew 9:16-17
New Wineskins is the youth music ministry of St Mary of the Angels. We are a Christ-centered ministry and our mission is to lead others to God through our music. We serve in retreats and other music-related activities, particularly in praise and worship. Our sessions are usually held on Saturdays from 4-6pm at Room 11. If you play the keyboard/ guitar/cajon or love to sing and would like to offer your gifts to the Lord, come and join us!
