Youth Formation
About Youth Ministry
Our Youth Ministry is more than just a program, it’s a community where faith, friendships, and real-life conversations come together. We create a welcoming space for teens to grow in their relationship with God, connect with one another, and discover how to live out their Catholic faith in today’s world.
At our gatherings, we talk openly about the challenges and joys of teen life: stress, social media, peer pressure, family life, relationships, and more. We also dive deeper into the heart of our faith through prayer, Scripture, and discussions about Jesus, the saints, the Holy Spirit, the Church, discipleship, and the sacraments.
But it’s not all serious, community and joy are central to who we are. From water balloon fights to service projects, sports, and movie nights, we make time for fun and friendship too.
Whether it’s through faith formation, honest conversations, or unforgettable memories, our Youth Ministry is here to walk with teens as they grow into disciples of Christ.
EDGE (Middle School Ministry)
EDGE is our ministry for middle school students, designed to help them discover the joy of following Jesus and growing in their Catholic faith. Middle school can be a time of big questions and big changes, and EDGE provides a safe, fun, and faith-filled environment where teens can explore who they are and who God is calling them to be.
