Sarah Murray is excited to join Our Lady of Guadalupe Church as our Youth Programs Coordinator. She will lead a team of volunteers who will work with junior high and high school youth to give them a space to form authentic friendships with their peers, develop a deeper relationship with Jesus Christ through a rich experience of the Catholic Faith, and have a place to step away from the seriousness of life and have some fun!

Sarah and her husband, Alex, have been married for over 16 years and are parents to their 6 children, from toddler to teenagers! Never a dull moment at the Murray household, Sarah enjoys time spent outdoors with her family, reading, writing, family movie nights, and everything in between.

Born and raised in the St. Joseph area, Sarah is a graduate of St. Patrick Grade School and
Bishop LeBlond High School. She went on to graduate from Franciscan University, Steubenville, Ohio and Benedictine College, Atchison, Kansas with degrees in Theology.
She feels so blessed to have experienced a rich Catholic culture in the home from her
parents and grandparents, and through Catholic education. She is hopeful that these
experiences, as well as her experiences as a wife and mother, have prepared her to work
with youth.

Sarah invites all parents, grandparents, and guardians of youth in 6th-12th grades to contact her for more information about the youth programs. Parishioners interested in
joining the prayer team to pray for this effort should also contact Sarah. She can be reached at youth@olog.org or by calling the parish office at 816- 232-2847.
