AGE 4 – 7: CHILDREN’S LITURGY OF THE WORD (CLOW)

CLOW introduces children to the Gospel message in a fun way. They are dismissed from Mass after the opening prayer and return during the offertory. The program includes engaging activities, songs, and prayers, led by adult and teen volunteers. No registration required.

Family Formation empowers families to deepen their relationship with God, share their faith stories, and strengthen their bonds. The program features music, games, activities, and scripture, with parents playing a crucial role.

Week A: Parents and children participate in a faith and service activity. No drop-off.

Week B: Opening gathering for all, followed by parent and child sessions. No drop-off.

Week C: Children meet in grade-level classes. No parent session.

This special time for children and families includes home-based activities, onsite parent formation, and interactive retreats. Students must be in 2nd grade or older AND enrolled in our Faith Formation Program or a Catholic Elementary School.

Preparation starts in November and concludes with First Communion in May.

EDGE is a high-energy youth ministry program for middle-schoolers to explore their faith, ask tough questions, and experience Jesus. Large group gatherings include prayer, games, and faith-filled messages, followed by small group discussions led by high school teens.

This program allows teens to explore their faith over two years in small groups, fostering a sense of belonging and a deeper encounter with Jesus. Teens stay with their small groups for two years so consistent attendance is important. Year 1 can start in 9th to 11th grade, with Year 2 following sequentially.

We need your help! Volunteer on Sundays with the little ones, Wednesdays co-leading groups, or assist with hospitality, decorating, music, photography, or office support. It’s a fantastic way to build faith and community while having fun.
