ministry to middle school students with disabilities
"Every parish should seek out its parishioners with cognitive, emotional and physical disabilities, support them with love and concern, and ensure that they have ready access to a catechetical program suited to their needs and abilities." - National Directory for Catechesis, 61.
We welcome all students with disabilities to participate in the ministry or program that is best for them in having a growing relationship with Christ. Consultation and inclusive formation opportunities are available within our middle school Shine program, as well as sacramental preparation. We are excited to match any student with disabilities or special needs with an adult or high school-aged buddy to help integrate the student into Shine. -
Middle school Sacramental prep
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.
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!
In the Archdiocese of Galveston-Houston, receptation of the Sacrament of Confirmation takes place after the 10th grade. -

Sunday, April 19, 6:00 PM - 7:30 PM
"Fiat" is a powerful word that means “let it be.” When it is spoken throughout Scripture and in our lives, remarkable things happen. Through God speaking the words "fiat lux", the world began with the creation of light, and when Mary said "fiat", Jesus came into being and the world was forever changed. Throughout this series, the youth will explore what the word fiat means and these two places it is seen in Scripture. They will learn the importance of their own fiat to God’s will for their lives, and they will also learn that they can say fiat by hearing God, trusting in His words, and taking action.
