Junior High Ministry

The Junior High School Religious Education Program is designed to promote positive adolescent development and growth in discipleship and Catholic identity within a youth-friendly community. 

 CATECHESIS / WORSHIP:

The junior high program will be using the Faith and Life religious education series. The Faith and Life series presents Catholic teaching using time-tested methods of catechesis and faith formation.  Correlated with the Catechism of the Catholic Church, it features use of Scripture to complement the series’ presentation of Catholic doctrine and practices.  

Eighth grade students will also use Confirmed in the Spirit. This text will be used as final preparation for the Sacrament of Confirmation.

CONFIRMATION:

Confirmation is normally conferred starting in 8th grade.  Prerequisite for this sacrament during 8th grade requires regular attendance for one year prior to being placed in a sacramental class. For specific information regarding the Sacrament of Confirmation, see the Confirmation page.

 SERVICE:

Service to parish and/or community is required of all students.   A list of service opportunities will be made available to all students.   A minimum of 12 service hours must be completed each year. 

 

Information will be sent via Constant Contact throughout the year as it becomes available.
