"Jesus said to them, 'Peace be with you. As the Father has sent me, so I send you." John 20:21

Those who minister to middle school youth are in the seed-planting business. They are working with kids who still have many significant and important decisions ahead of them, and the ministering adult has the opportunity to plant the seeds of Jesus' love, hope, and peace in the middle school child.

As a Catholic Community, we have the responsibility to assist the families in our parish in the faith formation of their children. By volunteering to become a Catechist or Catechist Aide for JYM: The Edge, you are answering the call of Christ.
