Children's Ministry

Children's Ministry is for youth in grades 1-5. We gather every-other Monday night from 5:30 -7 pm in the parish hall where we explore our faith in a dynamic way through activities, games, crafts, and music. Children’s Ministry launches on October 6^th!

Our goal with Children’s Ministry is threefold:

help the youth encounter Christ in a personal way, and grow closer to Him
have fun at Church
form good friendships. Friendships with volunteers, mentors, role models - people they can look up to, who will lead them closer to Christ. And friendships with other youth their age!

What happens at a children’s ministry night?

Children’s ministry consists of games, a brief catechesis talk, a break with snacks, and activities, like baking, crafts, and more!
