Benevolent Society
The Benevolent Society is an organization created to serve those in the local community who are in need. The primary focus is providing food through a weekly handout at the OMPH Food Bank located at the St. Clement's Mission House. The group also provides assistance for other necessities such as utilities bills, fuel oil, medical assistance, etc. as they are available. The Benevolent Society's outreach is provided through donations to the poor box and parishioner's monetary and food item support.
Food handouts are Wednesday evenings from 5:00 to 6:30pm for the community. Monthly meetings are held on the third Monday and all are welcome and encouraged to attend.

Youth Ministry
Youth Ministry holds weekly "youth group" meetings throughout the year, but we know that doesn't fit into every teenager's schedule. Our mission is to connect with every high school student and help them find their place in the parish. We host the annual Pet Blessing and Senior Mass. We're involved in the youth choir. We go on retreats to Fan the Fire and, new this year, to Steubenville, Ohio. We watch movies like the Lord of the Rings and Veggie Tales. And, if you're looking for a different way to get involved, we listen.

CYO (Athletic Association)
CYO is a parish-based basketball program, providing opportunities for youth to grow in faith and understanding of their Church involvement in parish and diocesan life. It encompasses a comprehensive model for the total development of the individual through a six-phase approach to youth ministry: athletic, social, cultural, catechetical, service and spiritual. As with any ministry to our parish, the three goals of a Catholic Youth Sports program are the same as enumerated in Renewing the Vision: A Framework for Catholic Ministry.
- To empower young people to live as disciples of Jesus Christ in the world today.
- The draw young people to responsible participation in the life, mission and work of the Catholic faith community.
- To foster the total personal and spiritual growth of each young person.
The Association meets on the first Monday of every month at 7:30pm.
