St. Augustines EDGE

EDGE (jr. high)

The EDGE is our junior high ministry. It serves as both our religious ed program (registration required) and the [new] youth group for junior high (no registration). Check the "Social Calendar" for events open to anyone in jr. high or the "Religious EDge Calendar" for anyone enrolled in Religious Ed.

EDGE approaches religious education to junior high youth using a radically new model. Jr. High youth are removed from classroom desks and brought into a large-group environment for gathering activities, teachings, prayer, social time, and games. In small groups, they break open the teachings and build solid, Christ-centered relationships that allow them to comfortably explore their Catholic faith and make it relevant to their everyday lives. This helps build safe relationships during some of the most formative years of a preteen's life.

Religious EDge Calendar

This calendar is for those students completing Religious Ed in the EDGE program and requires registration. Check the Social calendar for jr. high youth group events.
