The goal of the middle school program is to provide a place for youths to identify their place in the church, grow in their faith, and together in fellowship.

The ministry is intended to help youths and families become more actively involved in the parish life.

We also invite High School Students to come as teen mentors to help serve pizza, lead small group activities, and be a GREAT example to our younger parishioners.

Social time starts at 5:30pm and session begins at 6pm. Please check your emails to confirm pizza service.

On nights where we are meeting outside, we will offer a light snack and meet on the St Patrick Patio at 6pm.
