Youth


FAITH. FRIENDSHIP. FUN.

At St. Joan of Arc, our Youth Nights are designed for students in grades 6-12 to grow in their Catholic faith, build lasting friendships, and have fun together. Each month features either a guest speaker or a fun activity that ties effortlessly with our saint and virtue of the month, helping teens experience how holiness can be lived out in real life.

  • Middle School (6th-8th Grade)

    Middle School Youth Ministry meets on the second Sunday of each month from 6:00 to 7:30 PM in the Parish Atrium. This year we're diving into Scripture and the story of salvation through Ascension's Encounter, helping our 6th through 8th graders come to know God not as a distant doctrinal concept, but as a loving Father who desires a real relationship with them. We'll also be using the Virtue Explorer from Open Light Media, exploring the virtues as habits that help us recognize what is true and love what is good. All middle schoolers are welcome, so bring a friend and come see what we're all about.

  • High School

    High School Youth Ministry meets on the fourth Sunday of each month from 6:00 to 7:30 PM in the Parish Atrium. This year we're keeping it simple, using Quick Catholic Lessons with Fr. Mike from Ascension to explore a wide range of topics, from core questions about the faith to the practical, everyday challenges of being a young Catholic. Whether you're new to youth group or a familiar face, we'd love to have you and your friends join us.
