Volunteer Leaders Needed
Also with Fall approaching we are in need of more Volunteer Leaders to help form teens in their faith! It takes around 250 adults to lead our K-12 ministries and we need around 40 more by September 10th. Please pray about assisting with Faith Formation this year. There are opportunities to be involved on a weekly or monthly basis. The chart above helps display the days and times we need additional leaders:
10 more leaders at 930am on Sundays (6 Elem, 1 MS, 3 HS)
3 more leaders at 11am on Sundays (2 Elem, 1 MS)
11 more leaders at 1230pm on Sundays (4 Elem, 4 MS, 3 HS)
5 more *male* leaders at 645pm on Sundays (All MS & HS, more female leaders are welcome too!)
2 more leaders at 530pm on Mondays (2 MS - note this time change on Mondays)
In addition there are monthly opportunities to help with Sacrament Preparation and Theology of the Body special sessions (8 leaders needed 1st Sunday of the month starting in October!)

Youth Faith Formation Registration Open
Registration for Faith Formation (FF/CCE & Youth Group) for 2023-2024 is open! For those families that were unable to sign-up in the Spring this is a second window to secure your teen/child's spot until August 21st.
Ongoing faith formation is essential to the Christian life, especially for teens in the young Church. As parents, primary catechists of their children, you know how important the faith is to your family home and life. We are so excited to kick off this registration process for the coming year to supplement and coordinate with your family's faith formation! We are also looking for a number of volunteer leaders, please pray about joining our team :) Registration is a 2 step process with a formation form and a payment form.
