Shine

Shine is our weekly ministry for middle schoolers grades 6-8 on Sunday nights from 6-730pm, after the 5pm Mass – all teens and their families are welcome and encouraged to attend the 5pm Mass! Join us every week for food, faith, and fun as we journey in community as disciples on mission in the good life God has planned for us. 

It doesn’t matter if you go to Catholic School or Non-Catholic School, if you are in 6th, 7th or 8th grade Shine is for YOU!

Every teen’s spiritual life is important to us! The celebration of the sacraments are critical moments on the adventure of holiness. We offer preparation programs for each Sacrament, including Baptism, Eucharist, and Confirmation for middle school and high school teens.

Parents are the primary catechists and begin preparing their children for Confirmation from the moment of their Baptism, particularly after First Eucharist and Reconciliation through Children’s Faith Formation and an active, prayerful, lived out faith in the domestic church of the home. Faith Formation continues with our Shine middle school ministry, Awaken high school ministry, and especially through frequent reception of Communion at weekly Mass, and Confession of sins each year according to the precepts of the Church. Youth Faith Formation assists families personally during their specific years of immediate preparation for the Sacrament of Confirmation. Please contact us at 713-403-4191 or email youth@stmichaelchurch.net to begin this journey!
