FLOW (Grades 7-8)

"Following the Lord our Way"

We welcome all in Grades 7-8!!

FLOW is a great opportunity for you to grow in your faith, have fun, make new friends (maybe even some from other schools), 
AND gives you a chance to add to your Serve and Learn Collection.

JOYFUL COMMUNITY - NO HUSH SERVICE: We have a wonderful opportunity for young people to get involved here at the church in a new way for St. Joseph's.  We are implementing a service called Joyful Community - No Hush Prayer Service on the third Sunday of the month, 12:30-2:30 p.m.   Click HERE to sign up for the dates you can help.

CHILDREN’S LITURGY OF THE WORD (CLW): Teen helpers for Children’s Liturgy of the Word (kindergarten through grade 5) are needed on Sundays during the 10 a.m. Mass. This does not have to be a weekly commitment. You will work with Mrs. Wiggins in one of the parish meeting rooms. Click HERE to sign up for the dates you can help.

FAMILY STUDY: Teen helpers for Family Study (grades 3, 4, 5 and 6) are needed on Sundays from 11:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. This group only meets once a month, and you do not have to commit to all the meetings. You will work with Ms. Jeanette in Myrick Hall. Click HERE to sign up for the dates you can help.

Monday/Tuesday Catechist Helper:   We have an amazing religious education program here at St. Joseph.  We need teen helpers for our Preschool and Kindergarten classes on Monday or Tuesday night, from 6-7:20.  Please look through the sign up and see if there are nights you can come in and help.  Not a weekly commitment.  Click here to choose your night you can help.

Be a disciple for First Communion Retreat
8:30-11:45 am in the church
We are looking for middle schoolers to make the disciples come alive at our First Communion Retreat for 2nd and 3rd graders. You will be provided costumes, and the action takes place in the church at the altar table. You will pantomime the role of the disciples with Jesus – there are no lines to speak. It’s an easy and fun way to serve.
