We are in awe with the response that we have had for our Steubenville Trip. We have already filled our initial spots and now have 134 teens going which will be 3 full buses this summer.
Wow! God is real and His Spirit is alive here at Life Teen SMA! But we don't want you to hesitate to get on our WAIT LIST. Experience tells us that there will be something that will prevent someone from going on the trip at the last minute and you want to be the first in line to be on the trip.
So, in short, sign up below to get yourself on the wait list in case someone drops! You will be notified via email if a spot opens up and you are next in line. At that time, you will be instructed on how to officially register for the trip. Again, clicking on the button below gets you on the WAIT LIST.
About the Steubenville Retreat:
Get ready for an epic summer adventure! Steubenville awaits, calling all high schoolers for the ultimate 5-day journey. Join us at Missouri State University, where thousands of teens from every corner of the U.S. will gather for an electrifying experience of talks, worship, beautiful liturgy, and Eucharistic Adoration.
This trip has been changing lives at St Michael's and beyond for the past 15 years. We are headed back to Missouri State July 18th for the Steubenville Conference Mid-America Week 2, and then will continue our trip with just our Life Teen SMA community at Sky Ranch-Cave Springs until July 22nd.And guess what?
We're aiming for nothing less for every single teen who joins us.
Our prayer?
That each of you encounters the Divine, discovers uncharted territories in your life waiting for God's touch, and ultimately surrenders, giving Him the reins to steer your journey.
Pack your enthusiasm, bring your open heart, and get ready to encounter the life-changing power of this incredible trip. Steuby 2025 promises to be a ride you won't want to miss!
The SMA Parish Scholarship is for any teen who is a parishioner of St. Michael the Archangel Parish. St. Michael Parish is very supportive of the parish teens and wants to see all parishioners grow closer to Jesus. This scholarship is funded by St. Michael the Archangel parishioners.
Scholarships will be distributed based on need and are not guaranteed to be full scholarships. We will work with families to discover ways to offset financial aid in other ways to support the parish and its mission to bring Jesus to our community.
Emily's presence was a great blessing to the youth ministry at St. Michael the Archangel. Her vibrant faith, profound wisdom, and contagious joy left a lasting impression on each and every student and volunteer she encountered. A particular experience that Emily treasured was the opportunity to attend the Steubenville Youth Conference each summer. These nationwide conferences bring together thousands of teens to encounter Jesus in the Eucharist, hear dynamic talks, and build deep community. Emily was such a leader on these trips, experiencing the intense love Jesus has for her, and being Christ to others around her.
This year there will be 2 scholarships available for the Steubenville trip.
These can be awarded based on merit or financial need.
