JUNIOR HIGH MINISTRY

What a wonderful year we are having in Junior High Youth Ministry! We are using a the thematic series published by Hardcourt. The Teens find the booklets interesting and challenging. There was so much information to cover and discuss. Grade Seven is using the booklets on Jesus Christ and the Sacraments, Grade 8 is studying Morality while also preparing for Confirmation.

Listed below, by Grade Level, are the scope and sequence calendars.
Junior High Teens....please read the assigned material BEFORE your Youth Ministry Class Session and it will make for a better experience for all!
