Luke 18 Registration 2025 Logo
  • LUKE18 Registration

    Taking place April 11-13, 2025, LUKE18 is an incredible opportunity to bring your teens into a transformational experience of fun and faith. For over 20 years, St. Clement Youth Ministry has provided the LUKE18 weekend where middle school youth are able to be free and confident in themselves, develop new friendships with other teens from the parish, and encounter God working in their lives. This is the weekend that teens begin to experience a bigger and better life than they ever thought possible.

    Lodging

    This year we invite parents of teens to host sleep houses. Sleep houses are gender specific and will include at least two high school teens at each house. All teens will be picked up and dropped off by their respective sleep house hosts each day.

  • Sleep House Information

  • If you are willing to host a sleep house, we ask that you do not feed the teens or give them "special treatment" as they will be on a retreat. All we ask for is you give them a space to stay. They will bring their own sleeping bags and toiletries for showering. We also ask that you help transport them to St. Clement in the morning and pick them up in the evening.
