Ministries » Faith Formation » 7th through 12th

St. Mary’s provides age appropriate faith formation materials and classes for all youth beginning at age 4 through 12^th grade.  We strive to bring the parents into this process so the family may learn together. 

St. Mary's Faith Formation classes are scheduled as follows:
 
*Wednesday School for students in grades 7-12 from 7-8:15pm

• Seventh Grade:  “Celebrating Church” – A study of Scripture, Prayer and the Tradition of the Church.
• Eighth Grade:  “Following Jesus” – A study of the four Gospels and the Apostle Paul.
• Ninth Grade:  “Celebrating the Liturgy and Beyond the Written Word (Art)” – A study of the Lectionary and how we can learn our faith through art.
• Tenth and Eleventh Grades:  Confirmation Preparation using a ‘Growing in Faith’ process.

Grade Twelve:  Open discussion format about how Scripture and Church influences our everyday life.  During this year, the seniors are honored at a Senior Dinner and have the opportunity to apply for post high school scholarships.  A Baccalaureate Mass is offered in May.
