Registration for Faith Formation
We welcome all middle school and high school youth, from 6th grade through 12th grade, into our MS&HS Faith Formation Program (formerly known as PREP) to continue to learn about the Good News of Christ and be formed into Christian disciples that will be ready to live out their faith in the world.
The 2026-2027 Faith Formation schedule will be coming soon.​​​​
Middle School
Our dynamic new Youth Ministry program is blessed with an increase of peer ministry, a small group experience that meets the middle schoolers where they are with topics relative to their lives, and opportunities for social events. This is made possible by having Middle school and High School youth Ministry at the same time.
