Middle & High School

Middle / High School

Faith Formation

The St. Jude the Apostle Faith Formation program provides an opportunity for Middle and High School students in grades 7th through 10th to grow in faith by developing a meaningful relationship with Jesus, a better understanding of our Catholic tradition and help to plant roots for the adult years. This program includes instruction, fellowship, prayer, service, and fun.


Our Youth Ministry program also provides opportunities for youth to engage in service, social and retreat opportunities throughout the year.

Middle School

Youth in grades 7-8th will explore Encounter: The Bible Timeline for Middle School. Encounter is a life-changing experience that speaks directly to the hearts and minds of middle school-aged kids. As students are drawn into this story, they will come to a new and profound understanding of who God is. Most importantly, they will come to know God not as a distant doctrinal concept, but as a loving Father who desires a meaningful and lasting encounter with them.


Grades 7-8 will meet on the first and third Sunday of the month from 9:45-11am and then attend 11:00am Liturgy.

High School

The High School program provides an opportunity for youth in grades 9th and 10th to grow in faith by developing a meaningful relationship with Jesus, a better understanding of our Catholic tradition and help to plant roots for the adult years.


The 2024-25 curriculum will explore Venture: The Bible Timeline for Youth which is a program endorsed by the USCCB that provides an engaging “big picture” view of the Bible in a way that they can relate to and understand. The goal of this program is nothing short of winning over the hearts of teens and making them disciples of Christ. 


Grades 9-10 will meet on the first and third Sunday of the month from 9:45-11am and then attend 11:00am Liturgy.


Two years of High School Christian Formation classes are required of any young person, not enrolled in a Catholic High School before they begin to prepare for the Sacrament of Confirmation.
