Location: The Donnelly Neighborhood Center
The Donnelly Neighborhood Center is located right next to Close Park along Bellevue Road, and just north of our church. The Center is home to our School, Gym, Kitchen, and Kelly Room.
Children/Teens will enter through the main doors off of Bellevue Road, get signed in, and follow the instructions of the ADORE volunteers. An exact Google Maps pin for the building is provided below.
There are no fees associated with ADORE. However we do ask that families please donate dinner(s) to ADORE. We are usually looking to feed 30-40 people per event, (that includes our volunteers). The simpler the better is always safe. If families want to team up to help with a dinner that is also always an option.
If anyone is interested in donating to ADORE that is also welcomed.
Electronic donations can be made through the link below. Make sure to select “Recurring” or “One-time” and then “Adore – Youth Group” from the drop down menu.
Check donations are to be presented to the Director of Formation and Engagement (Ryan Adamson) or the parish office and written out to “Most Blessed Sacrament Parish” and “ADORE” in the memo.
Cash donations are to be presented to the Director of Formation and Engagement (Ryan Adamson) or the parish office.
Communication
Communications related to all Youth Faith Formation programs will primarily be sent out to the emails addresses and phone numbers provided in the registration form, from The Director of Formation and Engagement (Ryan Adamson). Families may also receive emails via our parish wide Constant Contact tool, and text messages.
A Safe Environment
Our parish is committed to providing safe, well-structured environments for children and youth. To do this well, we follow diocesan requirements and parish procedures that help ensure all adults serving in these ministries are properly trained, screened, and supported. The Youth Faith Formation VIRTUS Guide outlines what is initially required to volunteer to work with minors, why these steps matter, and how to complete them. It is intended to be a clear, practical reference for both new and returning volunteers.
This document is for all volunteers serving in Youth Faith Formation at Most Blessed Sacrament Parish, including those involved in:
Catechesis of the Good Shepherd
Religious Education (K–6)
ADORE Youth Ministry (Grades 7–12)
Confirmation Preparation (Grade 8)
