St. Theresa Youth Program offers both structured RE classes and Youth Ministry.
Middle School RE classes are held Sundays from 10:00am to 11:00am in Jordan Hall and are for all students not enrolled in Catholic School (see middle school religious education page).
Middle School Youth Ministry is an exciting blend of fun, fellowship, service, community building and retreat opportunities for middle school students to get involved with parish life, get to know each other, and grow in their faith and relationship with Christ. This is for all middle school students.
The Middle School Program has multiple facets:
- Service opportunities are offered throughout the year for middle schoolers to get hands-on experience in serving as Jesus taught.
- Retreats. There are retreat opportunities scheduled for middle school students. Retreat is a time to get away from our everyday lives and dive deeper into our faith. These opportunities will have lots of fun, games, social / free time, as well as prayer services, faith talks and moving moments.
- Parish Involvement. Look for Middle School Youth Ministry to be involved in other parish activities as well.
-
Catholic HEART Work Camp. A summer mission trip for those entering 7th -9th grade.
Middle School Youth Volunteers Middle School Youth Ministry is always in need of caring, open-hearted people to help lead our middle schoolers in their faith. We need:
- Young Adults who can help lead small groups, give faith talks and just be there to listen to the middle schoolers.
- Parents who can help drive to functions, chaperon events and serve snacks, and be backup support of our middle schoolers.
- High School Teens who can help lead retreats and be a role model for their younger brothers and sisters in Christ.
***Youth ministry volunteers must meet the diocesan polices on Ethics and Integrity in Ministry. Which includes an online background check and workshop before beginning ministry with young people. The youth office will assist you with these requirements.***
