Volunteers Needed for 2026-2027!
We are blessed with over 200 amazing high school youth here at St. Joseph’s. To make sure that every teen is given an overall faithful and joyful experience, we need your help! We are in need of volunteers to assist small groups, instruct and organize worship, and set/clean up after each session.

Additionally, we need a CORE set of volunteers who are committed to being directly involved in the formation of our youth’s faith weekly. If you are interested or want more information, feel free to contact me via phone or email. Thank you!

LIFE TEEN PROGRAMS 2026-2027 Fellowship. Faith Formation. Adoration. Service



Life Teen Mass

The Mass is the source and summit of our Catholic life. St. Padre Pio said, "It would be easier for the world to survive without the sun than without the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass". We invite all youth and their families to join us Sunday evenings at 5:30 pm for our Life Teen Mass.

Get Involved! We need ushers, readers, musicians, altar servers, Eucharistic ministers, and greeters to help on Sunday evenings.


Confirmation

Those who are preparing to receive their Confirmation will focus on building their understanding of the faith as they prepare to receive the Sacrament of Confirmation.  Teens will join with their families for Family Faith Formation for one of our 4 session times offered: Sundays 8:30am, 10:15am, or 4:00pm, or Wednesdays at 6:00pm. Please look at under our Faith Formation tab for more information.


The Woodshop

After dinner on Sundays, those who have already received their Confirmation join The Woodshop. The Woodshop is a dynamic post-Confirmation teen program that helps the youth apply their faith to their high school lives. They are taught ways to allow the Holy Spirit to deepen their faith and be channels of truth, goodness, and beauty in the world.


Prayer

The evening ends with a time of prayer, often before the Blessed Sacrament, where youth can unite themselves with Christ before going back out into the world!


 The Empower Leadership Program

The Empower Leadership Program was designed to give youth who have received their Confirmation to witness to their faith in a tangible, meaningful way, right in their own parish. Confirmed youth assist with the middle or high school programs on Wednesdays or Sundays. To join the Empower team, please reach out to Joseph at jcarter@saintjosephcc.org
