All for God is transforming teens and strengthening families and communities through their Parish Partner youth program. They provide the training and resources to build dynamic, life changing youth ministry in low income neighborhoods. When teens have a Gospel centered home in their neighborhood parish, lives can change! Teens that follow Christ are happier, do better in school and make better life choices; research studies confirm it. In low-income neighborhoods, youth ministry is a proven way of intervening, helping teens to avoid problems with violence, gangs, drugs and alcohol, and other high risk behaviors. They serve over 1600 teens each month through their Parish Partner youth program.
