My name is Marielle Carroll, and I am so excited to introduce myself as the new Youth Minister here at Immaculate Heart of Mary! I am a lifelong member of Immaculate Heart of Mary Parish and have had the joy of growing up and attending school right here in Scotch Plains. In this role, I’ll be working closely with our teens and their families to grow in faith, build community, and serve others. I will also be leading Confirmation preparation, Baptism preparation, and helping young families engage more fully in parish life.
While our official programs will kick off in September, I’d love the chance to meet you sooner! I’m in the parish office Monday through Thursday from 9:00 AM to 2:00 PM, and you are warmly invited to stop in this summer to say hello. Whether you’ve been involved in youth ministry before or are brand new, I’m here to walk with you on this journey of faith.
I truly look forward to getting to know our teens and young families, hearing your ideas, and creating opportunities for us to grow together in Christ. It’s an honor to serve this parish and to accompany our community in discovering the joy of living out our faith.
