"You too, dear young people, can be joyful witnesses of his love, courageous witnesses of his Gospel, carrying to this world a ray of his light." ~ Pope Francis

EDGE is a dynamic Catholic community for middle school students (6th-8th grade) that provides an environment to encounter Jesus and find their true identity in Him.  We offer both a Large Group Ministry (Tuesday Night Edge) and a small group ministry (Emmaus). All middle school students are welcome to participate in our ministries. There is no fee to attend!

Our Ministries

Tuesday Night EDGE

EDGE provides the opportunity for our students in grades 6, 7, and 8 to dive deeper into what we believe as Catholics and how to live out our faith in the world. Students participating in EDGE will encounter Jesus and come to understand how to have their identity rooted in Him. All students, regardless of where they go to school, are invited to join the conversation and experiences that EDGE has to offer on Tuesdays evenings from 6:00-7:30 PM. 

EDGE Core Team: Allison Sacomano, Amy Kirsch, Matthew Kirsch, Bree Hrobar, Dan Hrobar, Cindy Blanchet, Diana Turicek, Steve Turicek, Emily Tousignant, Mary Pelikan

Our Core Team is literally at the core of everything we do. Our Core Team is a group of volunteer ministers who give their time and talents to accompany teens to seek Christ, know Christ, and become Christ. Very simply, a Core member's job is to share Jesus Christ with teens. Their job is relational ministry which shows teens that they are valued and loved by God.

 

We Need Your Help! If you feel like Core Team is something that you would like to join, please arrange a time with Karissa to grab a cup of coffee and discuss further!
