EDGE

We are currently seeking adult volunteers for Edge!

Edge Core Team is a team of adult volunteers who minister to the Middle School Youth of the parish through the St. Mary’s Edge program.

Core members have:
· A love for Christ and middle school youth.
· A desire to minister to middle school youth on a weekly basis.
· A willingness to serve as a Christian role model.
· A love for their Catholic Faith and an active spiritual life
 
A Core Member’s responsibilities include:
1. Commit. Commit to Edge ministry and Middle School Youth for one year.
2. Plan. Meet with the Youth minister and other Core Members once a week to plan Edge nights
3. Pray. Pray more than you plan. Prayer plays a key role in ministering to youth. It’s important that Core Members pray often for the youth.
4.  SERVE. Serve the youth in Edge nights, including:
          A. Assist setting up/tearing down for Edge night
          B. Lead small group discussions
          C. occasionally giving a testimony/catechetical talk to the youth
          D. Assist in preparing food for the Edge night

Edge Ministry is not effective without the utilization of Relational Ministry. This means building a relationship with the youth, going above and beyond to show them you care about them. But it can’t stop there. This relationship should help guide them into a closer relationship with Christ and a love for their Catholic Faith.

 Please pray about whether or not you feel called to this important ministry.

 If you feel you might be called to be a Core Member, please fill contact Clare Weltens at 830-997-9523 or fill out the form below.
