Children’s Catechesis (PK-5th)
The mission of the Pre-Kindergarten through 5th grade Catechesis Program is to bring alive the faith of our children through their natural curiosity and desire for truth while demonstrating God’s love to them so that they may return that love with enthusiasm throughout their lives. Classes are offered at various times throughout the week to accommodate the most schedules as possible.


Middle School (6th-8th)
Through intentional mentoring relationships, dynamic weekly programming, retreats, discipleship groups, and social activities, Middle School Saint Encounter provides an environment for 6th and 8th graders to encounter and grow as disciples of Jesus Christ. MS Saint Encounter nights happen on Sundays, immediately following the 4:30 pm Mass and include dinner, activities, talks, music, small groups, and prayer.

High School Saint Experience is our main outreach to teens in 9th-12th grade.
