Junior High Faith Formation (EDGE)

Welcome to Junior High Faith Formation at Epiphany of the Lord Catholic Church! Our ministry is designed especially for students in 6th–8th grade, helping them grow in their Catholic faith, build lasting friendships, and discover how to live as disciples of Jesus in their everyday lives.

We use EDGE, a dynamic faith formation program from Life Teen, created specifically for middle schoolers. EDGE makes faith engaging, relevant, and fun by combining large-group sessions, interactive games, teaching rooted in Scripture and Church tradition, and small group discussions where teens can connect and grow in their faith.

What to Expect with EDGE

• High-energy gatherings that keep students excited about coming back each week.

• Scripture-based teaching that’s relatable and grounded in Catholic tradition.

• Small groups led by caring adult mentors who walk alongside our youth.

• Service opportunities to put faith into action.

• A welcoming environment where every junior high student belongs!

Our Amazing Core Team

At the heart of our EDGE program is our dedicated Core Team of catechists—faith-filled adults who love God and love walking with young people on their faith journey. They lead small groups, mentor teens, and create a safe, fun, and welcoming space for students to ask big questions and grow closer to Christ.

Why Join EDGE?

Junior high is a critical time in a young person’s faith journey. Through EDGE, your child will not only learn what we believe as Catholics but also how to live it out with confidence and joy. It’s more than just “religion class”—it’s a chance to encounter Jesus, build community, and discover a vibrant faith that lasts a lifetime.
