Youth Ministry - Middle School

Pope John Paul II said in his Letter to Families “Parents are the first and foremost educators of their own children.” He also said: “Parents by themselves are not capable of satisfying every requirement for the whole process of raising children.” Our youth ministry respects parents as the first educators of their children – so we want to complement those efforts.
 
Our goal at St. Joseph's is to provide youth with a solid catechetical, relational, and experiential curriculum that prepares their hearts and minds to fully receive the Gospel message. Through systematic catechesis, youth are offered opportunities for conversion, and challenged to live their Catholic faith as well as serve the within the parish and greater community.

​Beginning in 7th Grade teens meet one evening a week for both large group instruction and small group interaction.  This helps them get to know their peers and prepares them for the High School Youth Group as well.

Middle School Ministry will begin in September, meeting online until Covid restrictions are lifted and we can return to the parish.
