You will see representations from the Archdiocesan recognized SGYM band / choir, Cherubim (Elementary School) and the Valiant's Concert Choir (High School) – both recognized and winners of various national choir competitions.

Proceeds during this event will be used for Youth Ministry related activities that will benefit the whole Parish community.

So please come and support your youth!!!

"Training Time! "

On February 12 & 13 there will be two day training opportunities for people that minister to our young people.  There will be a Youth Ministry Specialization, a Young Adolescent Specialization, and Confirmation Catechist Specializations (in English and Spanish) offered at All Souls Parish in Alhambra.  These training sessions are offered by the Archdiocese of Los Angeles. 

Anyone who wants to work/serve with youth in any leadership role must be trained under the guidelines of the Archdiocese of Los Angeles and U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops. For more information on these sessions, please contact your youth minister, J.P. Fernandez at the information above.
