Water's Edge Group

Are you a young adult between the ages of 18 and 35, looking to learn more about your faith? Would you like to develop friendships with a solid foundation, but aren’t crazy about the idea of sitting in a church basement in order to do it? Join us for Water’s Edge, a group specifically for Washington County young adults and held usually at Jalisco’s in West Bend. This group is open to single and married, Catholic or not, of drinking age and not, who are interested in hearing good talks about topics relevant to their faith and their life! Join us on the first Tuesday of each month.

Dead Theologians Society

Who needs Youth Group when Dead Theologian’s Society is around? Named after the movie the Dead Poet’s Society, St. Peter’s Dead Theologian’s Society is part of a national organization that works in parishes to bring young people to a better understanding of their faith through the example of the saints of the past (hence Dead Theologian’s!) In addition to great fellowship and food (we always share a meal together); we strive to support one another in living for Christ. All in grades 9 through 12 are welcome to join us weekly on Wednesdays at 7:15PM in the Catacombs of Clare Hall as we learn about a new saint or aspect of the faith that can be lived in everyday life!
