C.Y.O.

St. Andrew CYO is a parish-based program which provides opportunities for youth to grow in faith and understanding of their church through involvement in the parish, regional, and archdiocesan life. The CYO's five phase approach to youth ministry-athletic, social, cultural, service, spiritual-is a comprehensive method in the total development of the individual through a total youth ministry concept.
