The
primary purpose of the Middle School Ministry is to walk with
middle school students and their families on their faith journeys
by exposing them to the message and life of Jesus, by modeling
a life of discipleship (social justice, community, love of neighbor),
and challenging them to use their gifts to build God’s
kingdom here on earth. This is accomplished through a fun and
engaging weekly general session, service projects, liturgies,
socials and trips.
The program components are as follows:
• General Session: This meeting
takes place on a weekly basis on either Tuesday or Wednesday
evening from 7:30pm to 8:30pm at St. Augustine Hall. The session
combines large and small group activities. One night during
the month will be a social night. Friends may be invited to
the social night. Each session will begin and end with prayer.
• Social Events: We offer various
social events and activities throughout the year.
• Liturgy: Middle School students are encouraged to attend
the 4:00pm liturgy at St. Elizabeth Seton on Sunday and to participate
in the opportunities that this provides.
• The Sacrament of Reconciliation:
This will be celebrated during Lent for those Middle School
students who have not received the sacrament. To prepare for
this, there will be a retreat. Attendance at this retreat is
required for the reception of the sacrament.
• Service Projects: Service opportunities are provided
throughout the year both in the context of the students’
small community and in the larger MSM community.
• Trips: A ski trip is offered once per year. Other trips
are offered on occasion.
