Who is Youth Ministry For?
Youth Ministry is for Pre-Teens and Teenagers in grades 6 through 12. This program is an integral part of the overall Formation Program and contains similar programming adapted for pre-teens and teens. Youth Ministry is an integral part of the inter generational aspect of Family Formation and will be called upon in a service role to help with Family Formation nights.
Building Virtue and skills for life
|
Multiple national studies have found that todays teens are stressed to the max. To the point that teens today are experiencing a mental health crisis. This was before COVID-19 hit. Which is why this year we are focused on finding how Catholic prayer and meditation can lead to a path of Peace and Serenity in knowing Jesus Christ. Prayer is an art but also a habit or virtue, so we are partnering with a great app developer to bring awesome content and helpful focus to your teens life. We are really excited to accompany your teen in understanding the importance of prayer, how it connects to the life of the Church, and how it brings peace and grace into daily life; especially when the unexpected happens.

What about COVID-19?This year, we will be beginning 100% virtual. We will utilize Zoom and other platforms and apps to connect, discover, pray, and learn together. Community is no-doubt difficult to keep especially as everyone is distanced from each-other. But, we have found a way to make it fun and interactive. No matter what educational plan you have chosen for school.
When do we start?Our first session begins Wednesday, September 9th at 7:00 PM via Zoom. We will begin the year with grades 6-12 meeting at our initial gathering and then break into smaller groups. Youth Ministry will generally gather on a weekly basis except the first Wednesday of the month.
This year due to COVID we are taking a month by month approach to programming, but we will be focusing hard on delivering the best content possible! |
