ADULT INVOLVEMENT


Our programs cannot exist without YOU!
 Please read the descriptions below to find your role in our program

MIDDLE SCHOOL CATECHIST: Catechists work with a small group of 10-12 children using the plans and materials provided. Attendance at a formation session in September and participation in the Pathways catechist training program is expected. 


MIDDLE AND HIGH SCHOOL ASSISTANT: 
Assistants help the catechist with the pre-planned weekly sessions. Assistants attend a formation session in the fall and are encouraged to participate in the Pathways catechist training program.


HIGH SCHOOL PLANNING TEAM: 
Members work together in planning & leading the high school LifeTeen sessions. Team members attend formation sessions in the fall and encouraged to attend diocesan-sponsored events.


SESSION COORDINATOR: 
The coordinator oversees the weekly religious education sessions for middle or high school. They open and close the building, collect attendance sheets and assist in other areas as needed. Coordinators are to keep a watchful eye on the entry and commons area, and promote safety. Coordinators remain until all students have been picked up. 


HIGH SCHOOL HOSPITALITY CREW:
 The Hospitality Crews are scheduled on a rotating basis to coordinate the snack portion of the LifeTeen sessions. They are not responsible for providing the food.

There are ways to help even if you cannot make a weekly commitment. Contact Renee Reisenweaver if you would like to help on a temporary basis.

FALL MEETING

There is a Kick-Off and Parent Meeting in the 
Fall for both Youth R.E. & Confirmation. All youth should attend with at least one parent or guardian. Please check the Youth R.E. Calendar for latest dates and times. (Youth R.E. Calendar)
