Youth & Family Faith

Youth & Family Faith
(Preschool – 8th grades)

Nurturing a family of faith is not a spectator sport. We recognize the calling of parents as primary educators and role models to their children. We partner with and support parents to help them engage their families to learn and share their faith.

What does Youth & Family Faith involve?

Parent Sessions

Parents (at least one parent) are required to attend sessions while their youth attend class (1- 2 times per month). Parent sessions meet at the same time as the youth classes.

Faith@Home
Families engage in at home lessons and activities during the weeks that in person classses are not in session.

Sacrament Preparation

Sacramental Preparation for Reconciliation, First Communion, and Confirmation is a two-year process. Participation in Youth & Family Faith Formation is required.  The second year of preparation will include in person parent/child sessions, at home lessons, retreats, and service activities in addition to continued involvement in Youth & Family Faith.

Youth Ministry (3rd -8th grades)

Youth Ministry provides an opportunity for our young people to build a community of their peers at SS. Peter & Paul  and participate in fun, social, spiritual and service activities.

Launch and Lift Youth Ministry meet the 3rd Friday afternoon/evening each month for activities to enhance and enrich our Youth and Family Faith program. Involvement in Launch and Lift is optional and does not take the place of Youth & Family Faith (K-8th).
