Peer Ministry Team Application Quiz

False! Even if you feel you have little or no specific responsibility at a particular PMT meeting, it is expected that you will be present for every meeting throughout the year.

Peer Ministry is a team-oriented, others-focused ministry. Dating, by it’s very nature, is couple-oriented and couple-focused. If you do date someone else on PMT, please be conscious of how it affects the rest of the Team.

We should attend Mass every single week. This is not just a PMT obligation, but an obligation we all have as Catholics. In order to stay united to Jesus, we must receive Him in the Eucharist every week. This means attending Mass every Sunday (or Saturday evening).

During the school year, meetings are held on Sunday afternoons from 3:15 PM - 5:15 PM in the basement of the Oak Street Church. During the summer, meetings are held on Sunday evenings from 6:30 PM - 8:30 PM in the basement of the Oak Street Church.

True! Each team member is expected to serve on the Kyrios Retreat Team. If you have not attended the Kyrios Retreat before, you must first come as a participant on the next Kyrios. Either way, you are expected to serve on the Kyrios Team for at least one of the two Kyrios Retreats throughout the year.

Do not contact another Team member and ask them to relay the message to a PMT Adult or the Youth Minister! Please contact a PMT Adult or the Youth Minister directly!

All we do should point to Jesus, not to ourselves.

Don’t hesitate to contact the Youth Minister. Please do not simply drop your commitment to the Team without telling anyone, as this can be confusing and even hurtful to the other members of the Team. Membership on the PMT can be flexible depending on your circumstances and needs, and the Youth Minister would be more than happy to discuss this with you.

All public displays of affection should be completely invisible because they are a distraction to everyone else at the meeting or event. Remember, we are not here for ourselves, but to serve other and lead them to Jesus.

In this ministry, people will come to trust you. You must always respect that trust by never making public what they share with you in private. The only exception is if they told you that they plan on hurting themselves or someone else.

Please don't forget to pay this fee! Youth Ministry already subsidizes so many costs, and this fee helps to defray PMT expenses.

If you have a significantly busier sport/extracurricular season, we can be flexible with your attendance at the various Youth Ministry events at which you are usually asked to serve. However, even during this season the team member is expected to continue attending all Sunday PMT meetings.

The correct answer includes all of the options listed. As a member of the PMT (Presbyterian Ministry Team), you would have the responsibility of welcoming new and returning people to the Youth Group, helping clean up after Youth Group is over, leading small groups when needed, and staying after for a post-Youth Group debriefing and discussion. These tasks contribute to creating a welcoming and inclusive environment for all members of the Youth Group and ensuring that the group functions smoothly and effectively.

And remember, you may be asked at other times throughout the year to offer your service at other Youth Ministry events not specified in the PMT application. The PMT is expected to serve the parish when the need arises, and to be present in the community.

The correct answer is to notify the Youth Minister in person (i.e. face-to-face), and then notify the entire Team either in person or by writing a letter. This is the most appropriate course of action because it allows for direct communication and ensures that both the Youth Minister and the entire Team are informed of the decision. It also gives the opportunity for any necessary discussions or clarifications to take place.

Please, no last-minute absences, unless there is an unexpected emergency. Please look ahead at your schedule!
