Our ministry: The Middle School Program is comprised of 2 components: large group gatherings and family home formation. Middle schoolers meet twice a month to learn about the fundamentals of our Catholic faith. Grades 6 & 7 meet together and Grade 8 meets separately.
Parents' role: Parents are expected to participate as volunteers for at least 2 gatherings during the year. Resources will be provided for at-home family prayer, reflection, and study focusing on the Scripture, the lives of the Saints, and other spiritual writings.
One parent from each family will need to complete the Archdiocese VIRTUS (child protection program) training in order to participate at the large group gatherings.
