St. Joseph's Youth Ministry

Faith Formation for Our Youth: EDGE & Life Teen

At St. Joseph Catholic Church, we believe our young people are not just the future of the Church—they are the Church today. Through our EDGE (Middle School) and Life Teen (High School) programs, we invite our youth to encounter Christ, grow in faith, and build lasting friendships rooted in God’s love.

• EDGE (Grades 7–8): A dynamic, fun, and faith-filled program designed to help middle school youth discover who they are in Christ. Through engaging activities, small group discussions, service, and prayer, EDGE guides students in building a strong Catholic foundation.  This also serves as the formation for Confirmation. 

• Life Teen (Grades 9–12): A vibrant high school ministry that leads teens into a deeper relationship with Jesus through the Sacraments, prayer, community, and service. Life Teen empowers young people to live their Catholic faith boldly and joyfully in their daily lives.

Together, EDGE and Life Teen provide opportunities for prayer, fellowship, service, retreats, and parish involvement, helping our youth grow as disciples and leaders within the Church.

“Let no one despise your youth, but be an example to the believers in word, in conduct, in love, in spirit, in faith, in purity.” – 1 Timothy 4:12
