Make Life Count!

Have you been looking for a way to make life count?

The Perkins Youth School is a theological program for high school youth to equip them with the skills for vocational discernment and critical theological reflection about their faith and society.

What is PYST?

PYST offers young people a place to explore faith formation practices of service, worship and theological study. Youth are looking for ways to make sense of what happens in their communities, churches and the world. PYST partners with diverse communities to walk alongside youth as they serve in community outreach, develop mentor relationships, and engage in theological studies.
