Youth Ministry
Youth Ministry is a program for all 6th – 12th grade youth of our parish who attend public, private, and home schools. This is a program where our youth can learn about their faith, find a Catholic community, and experience Jesus all while having fun and serving others.
Please note that Youth Ministry and the Preparation for the Sacrament of Confirmation are different programs.

Youth Ministry Areas
EDGE (6-8th Grade)
EDGE is our youth ministry program for 6th-8th grade students. EDGE meets Wednesdays, 5:30-7pm beginning in September.
We will use the EDGE curriculum from LifeTeen that is specifically developed for Catholic youth in grades 6-8. Our sessions will consist of fellowship, prayer, scripture-infused lessons, small group time to engage more fully with lessons−as well as games and service opportunities (students can earn service hours).
For more information about EDGE please contact Hannah Jones, Middle School Faith Formation Coordinator at 515-440-1030.
FISH (Fellowship in Spirit with Him, 9-12th Grade)
FISH is our youth ministry program for 9th – 12th grade students. FISH meets Wednesdays, 7:30-9pm beginning in September.
The three goals of FISH are to: empower our teens to be a part of our Catholic Community, to help our young people develop a personal relationship with Jesus, and to have fun!
Evening formats will follow the LifeTeen curriculum with a Life Night, Issue Night or a Social Relational Night.
