Our Junior High Faith Formation Program is offered for those students in grades 6-8. It is open to those who have received their First Holy Communion but are not yet of age to begin their Confirmation preparations and for those preparing for First Communion. Sacrament preparation may include some additional formation sessions.
Each paid registration includes a Catholic Youth Bible and will use Source & Summit as a guide with weekly reflections on the Sunday Scriptures written by families, for families. We join together in an adventure of faith as we journey through the liturgical year. Through the various liturgical seasons, the Church shepherds us amidst the ever-changing world and seasons of our lives. The Eucharist is “the source and summit of the Christian life" (Lumen Gentium 11).
Each reflection follows the same 4 movements: Listen, Share, Engage, and Act. Through stories, activities, reflection questions, short teachings, action steps, and prayer, families will be encouraged and resources with weekly content to help foster intentional faith conversations at home.
In addition, students will participate in bi-monthly meetings (via Zoom) for further Bible study formation and activities. We will also offer Zoom Junior High youth events beginning in November 2020.
