    Hi everyone, you may have previously seen that we were having a joint Ignite and Ablaze night paired with our parent meeting this Sunday, Jan. 5th. This is no longer the case.

    Due to a family emergency in my own life and needing to take time off of work, we are slightly behind schedule with the full rollout of our Edge program and all pieces. I will be reaching out early next week with an updated date and time for our parent meeting regarding Life Teen/Edge for you all to put to your family calendars.

    This week, we will remain with our normal format of Ignite (now affiliated with Edge) at 4:30 pm. As always, please reach out with any questions and I will be back in touch as soon as possible.

  • Posted 11/11/24: Hey everyone, with the holidays approaching, I'm trying to gauge attendance for our Dec. 1st meeting. (The weekend immediately following Thanksgiving) Please fill this out!

Parents

We're so glad you are here! All important information for parents can be found on this page.

Please make sure your child's medical release form for the 2024-25 is completed for school year prior to September 8, 2024. These can be turned into the front office.

This is essential for your child's safety and well-being and is required to participate in Parish activities in the future. If you are unsure if it is completed, or you are having difficulty obtaining one, please contact us.

Please sign-up to volunteer as a SafeParish volunteer! In order to ensure the safety of your child, we partake in the SafeParish program of Child Protection. We require at least one parent volunteer per youth night. However, in order to give the children the best experience possible, 2-4 adults are ideal. Please graciously consider donating your time to help the program
