We have another great year planned for High School Faith Formation and Confirmation Preparation. See the highlights below!
MONTHLY SCHEDULE
- REQUIRED 1st Sundays, Class Time: All high school students will meet on the 1st Sunday afternoons from 12:45 – 2:15 pm following the 11:30 am Mass. Groupings will be by class: Freshman, Sophomores and Juniors. This will be an opportunity for teaching and small group discussions.
- REQUIRED 3rd Sundays, Mass Ministries & Large Group Time: On the 3rd Sundays, there will be Youth Mass in the morning at 11:30 am, where every student will have at the opportunity to serve in a worship ministry. Then at 12:45 – 2:45 pm, we will will come together as one BIG group (all grades together) typically with a guest speaker, more prayer time, more music and more time for personal reflection. This is in direct response to student feedback!
- LIFENITE: All high school students can come together in an informal way to chill, be themselves, and have some fun together. The purpose is to build community among our parish teens!
CURRICULUM
- FRESHMAN, SOPHOMORES and JUNIORS will use Matthew Kelly’s Decision Point program. The program includes DVD and small group discussion.
- JUNIORS will have greater focus on preparing for the day they receive the Sacrament of Confirmation. This includes working toward all sacramental requirements such as letter to the bishop, selection of Saint name, etc.
- SENIORS are invited to all 3rd Sundays and to volunteer and help with the catechist team in any of these classes!
