MIDDLE SCHOOL YOUTH - WELCOME!

We have Youth Nights on most Fridays, including over the Summer. 

All Youth Nights provide an atmosphere for building up a small community of Middle School believers.  Most of these Youth Nights will be centered on faith formation, and all will have some fun activities.  Unless otherwise noted, we will meet in the lower level of the Parish Center from 7:00-8:30 pm.

We also have three Gatherings each semester.  These Gatherings will occur during the regularly scheduled RE classes.  With these Gatherings, we are able to provide a change of pace from the usual classroom experience, offering a more social setting for faith formation.

Some of our major events for the Summer are:

• Middle School End-of-Year Party - Friday, May 31. This is our last event for our rising 9th Graders and first event for our rising 6th Graders. come and join the fun!
• Vacation Bible School - June 10 - 14. We NEED Middle School Youth to volunteer to help out! Please register here.
• Middle School Bowling Night - Friday June 21at Capital Lanes, 6:00 - 8:00 PM. Join us for pizza, a drink, and a couple of games of bowling!
• Covecrest Summer Camp - July 29 - Aug 3. Located in Hiawassee, Ga. Best. Camp. Ever.
• 8th Grade Leaders Retreat - Saturday, August 10.
