Middle School Youth Ministry

Middle School Youth Ministry is open to ALL young people in grades 6-8, regardless of school or parish affiliation. Middle School Faith Formation for grades 6-8 is an important part of the components of total youth ministry.  If you have a middle schooler who has been away from faith formation for a while (or is just starting out), they are welcome to attend!

If you have a middle schooler who is seeking to prepare for the Sacraments of Baptism, Reconciliation (Confession), and/or Eucharist (Communion), Middle School Youth Ministry is a foundation for those processes. Contact our  Sacramental Coordinator, Airryn Sorto, for more information.

Youth in our parishes are invited to prepare for Confirmation during high school or beyond.

If you have a middle schooler with special needs, they are welcome to participate! Please reach out to the Director of Youth Ministry to discuss the best fit for your child in youth ministry.
