Let’s be real — life is a lot. School, extra curriculars, friends, family, figuring out who you are, what you believe, and what actually matters. That’s where Submerge comes in. We’re a high school youth group where things get real — about faith, about life, about Jesus.
This isn’t about checking boxes or pretending to have it all together. It’s about diving deep into your relationship with God, being part of something bigger, and discovering who you really are in Christ.
We’re rooted in the Catholic Church. We’re about authentically living out our faith right now, in your world, with your questions, your struggles, and your hopes.
Here, you’ll find a community that actually sees you. We worship. We serve. We laugh. We pray. We show up for each other. And we learn together how to live boldly — not just on Sundays, but every day.
So if you're searching for purpose, craving something deeper, or just looking for people who get it — you’re invited. You are welcomed in. You belong here.
Let’s go deep into our faith. Let’s Submerge.

How can I help Submerge?
Join the Dive Team
The Dive Team is a core group of Confirmed high school students who assist with planning and the facilitating of Faith Formation events. Members will learn skills for leadership and to help in sharing their faith.
Submerge is Our Lady of the Lake's high school youth group dedicated to guiding teens into a deeper relationship with Jesus Christ. Rooted in the teachings of the Catholic Church and demonstrating its application in our current culture. We create a welcoming community where teens can explore their faith, build authentic friendships, and discover their identity in Christ. Through worship, service, prayer, and discipleship, we invite youth to submerge their lives fully in God’s love and live boldly as witnesses of the Gospel.
