SOMD Youth Day - Rock the Faith!

The title and logo for Southern Maryland Youth Day have been chosen - Rock the Faith! Psalm 62:3 says, "God alone is my rock and salvation, my secure height; I shall never fall." We can focus our lives on popularity, on school, on our friends, on our possessions, and on so many other things, but only faith in God gives our lives real meaning. Things in our life may come and go, but our Catholic faith is always the same.

The deadline for registration has been set to February 20th. You can register online at http://www.stmaryscatholicyouth.com/ or by snail mail.
