What is COR Group?
Here at Our Lady of Mercy, our high school youth group is called "COR" group. COR, short for 'heart' in Latin, is found in the Latin word Misericordiae- meaning mercy- and mercy is the foundation of our group, as well as our parish's namesake. We strive to be the faces of mercy to our families, our friends, on our athletic fields, and in our classrooms. COR strives to build community through prayer, fun, and authentic friendships. It is through this community that we, with our fellow teens, can navigate the unique challenges that high school brings and prepare for other life transitions that come our way. It is in this community that we can be comfortable and confident to find support in Christ with our peers by our side. It is in this time of discovery and growth that we seek opportunites to encounter God in each other and the the beauty of the Catholic Church.
All high school students and college students who may be home learning virtually are welcome!
