On Sunday nights, high school students are invited to participate in one of the youth ministry small faith communities. These gatherings meet according to grade and dive into topics that explore who they are, who the Church is, and what it means to be a disciple of Christ.
In partnership with the Midland area Catholic churches, students are also able to attend another parish's youth ministry program.
Sunday Night Program
9th GRADE
BEING HUMAN 101
The 9th grade program seeks to introduce students to discovering who they are in the eyes of God. The program addresses the questions: Who am I? Who am I to God? Who am I to the world? What does it mean to be human? What does it mean to be a much loved child of God? How does this affect my life? My relationships with God? With others? With myself? This program expands upon the ideas and concepts in Theology of the Body.
