The Lisieux Sorority is a group for high school age women who want to grow in sisterhood, virtue, and devotion to St. Thérèse and her Little Way. There is a strong emphasis on growing in relationship with one another so from that firm foundation we can best serve our parish in any way that is needed. Inspired by St. Therese of Lisieux, the Lisieux Sorority forms young women through prayer, authentic friendship, and humble service, helping them grow as joyful disciples of Jesus Christ.
Rooted in the Catholic Faith, the Lisieux Sorority seeks to form joyful disciples who pray together, serve generously, reflect intentionally, and bring hope wherever they go. By embracing the Little Way, we strive to make an impact on our parish, our schools, and our communities through small acts of faithful love.

Membership fees ($50) are due by the end of December 2026 to be eligible to attend the January retreat.

"Miss no single opportunity of making some small sacrifice." — St. Thérèse of Lisieux
Hi! I’m Mackenzie Nguyen! I stepped into this role in September 2025 after studying Religious Education at Marian University and serving with a Catholic ministry in Milwaukee from 2022–2025.
I love working with teens because they bring unique energy and depth that makes ministry both meaningful and engaging. They invite deeper reflection, bring genuine joy, and continually remind me of the importance of faith in everyday life. One of my favorite parts of youth group is watching authentic friendships grow and seeing teens come to recognize that they truly belong in the life of the Church.
My personal parenting style and how I view youth ministry is simply put by Saint John Bosco…“Run, jump, shout, but do not sin”.
