st. john youth and young adult ministry
Goals of St. John the Evangelist Youth Ministry
- Empower young people to live as disciples of Jesus Christ in our world today;
- Draw youth into responsible participation in the life, mission, and work, of our Catholic faith community;
- And deepen the personal and spiritual growth of everyone involved in Youth Ministry.
- St. John the Evangelist Youth Ministry is about building relationships, not programs, and we are committed to doing whatever it takes to help our teens know how much our community loves them and values their involvement!
Confirmation
St. John the Evangelist offers the Sacrament of Confirmation to students in grades 9 and above. Confirmation takes place once a year at the Parish and we confirm in the spring. Registration for this year’s program will open on Monday, November 6. More information will be coming soon!
High School Youth Ministry
The St. John High School Youth Ministry offers a variety of programs that meet the spiritual needs of our 9-12th grade community of believers by building relationships, participating in service activities and social events, and being a part of the greater Christian community. We will be walking with you through your faith journey teaching you how to respond to real life situations.
Junior High Youth Ministry
Junior High Youth Ministry is for grades 6-8. They will experience Jr. High Youth Nights where they can practice their faith in ways that challenge and excite them, along with several service events. Jr. High Youth Ministry will join the High School Youth Group for service events both in and outside of the parish, and for other events outside the parish.
West Chester Catholic Young Adults
The young adult program is also known as WCCYA (West Chester Catholic Young Adults). WCCYA is a Catholic young adult (18-39) community dedicated to growing in Christ-centered relationships, deepening our faith, and reaching out to those in need. Visit our Young Adults Facebook Page.
