Through the Saints of yesterday, the Dead Theologians
Society inspires the youth of today to become the saints
​of tomorrow.

​Dead Theologians Society (DTS) is a unique youth ministry program dedicated to learning about your faith with the Saints in a prayerful way.
 
How did the Saints live?  When? What were they like as teenagers? Did they experience ups and downs like we do? How did they strive to be Christ-like?   


Open to high school seniors (if there is enough interest) who desire an intentional quest to be Christ-like.
