Our Programs
Middle School
Middle school youth ministry opportunities are available to help all youth in sixth through eighth grade grow in their faith. We also offer Wednesday night faith formation classes.
High School
From monthly youth masses with hundreds of teens from across the metro to a mission trip to Guatemala, there are opportunities for all freshman through seniors to grow in their faith journey.
Confirmation
Confirmation preparation is a two year program open to all youth in ninth grade and above. All the elements help teens understand the purpose of Confirmation and prepares them to receive this life-changing sacrament at the end of the second year.
