Clayton Baumgartner has been serving as the Youth Minister at our parish since 2021, bringing a passion for faith formation and youth development. With experience collaborating alongside the ministry heads of RCIA, RCIC, and Religious Education, Clayton has been dedicated to creating a dynamic and engaging environment for young people to grow in their Catholic faith. This year, he is excited to expand the youth group curriculum to include summer activities (e.g. a Nerf War and Pizza Night—a fun way to bring the youth together for fellowship and excitement). Check out the parish calendar for upcoming events!
Clayton is deeply inspired by the words of Saint Thomas Aquinas: "The things that we love tell us what we are." He strives to instill in the youth the love for God and one another. In addition to his ministry work, he is currently working on his dissertation in Hermeneutics at Pontifex University. He is committed to understanding and interpreting the deep truths of our faith. His dedication to both academics and ministry creates a unique and enriching experience for our parish’s young people. Stay tuned for more exciting activities and opportunities for growth!
