Busy families have many time constraints, but please pray about the importance of keeping your child’s  religious   education a priority. These post-sacrament classes help strengthen their faith journey and encourage them to apply their learning and understanding of the Catholic faith to everyday life. The students understand they are an important part of our faith community as they become involved in projects and events within our parish.

Junior High Ministry

All 7^th and 8^th graders are invited to sign up for the Junior High Ministry program. We would love to see the junior highers every week, however, the ministry is designed to accommodate busy teenager schedules.  If your child is preparing for Confirmation, please see below regarding consistent attendance.

Confirmation 

Eligible candidates are students in 7^th grade or above who have been enrolled in consecutive years of a faith formation program. Students register for Junior High Ministry.  Consistent attendance is obligatory as the preparatory lessons are taught during the weekly Junior High Wednesday evening class.
