Welcome to Our Lady of the Assumption's Edge Junior High Ministry!

 

Our Junior High Youth Ministry program is open to all students from 6th to 8th grade. The program helps junior high students to continue growing in their faith and to deepen their relationships with their peers in a fun, safe, and spiritual setting. Using catechetical teachings as well as games, activities, and faith sharing, our youth are encouraged to embrace God and their Catholic faith, and are more prepared for entering high school as well as Confirmation in 9th grade.
