Middle School Book CLub

As a supplement to our traditional 6th–8th grade faith formation offerings, St. Ignatius offers the Youth Book Club, a unique monthly gathering for middle school students to build community, ask questions about their faith, and reflect on social justice issues through carefully researched, age-appropriate literature. To foster dialogue between students, discussions are led by high school student leaders who have participated in the program previously.

​

The program is framed by the Catholic Social Justice teachings. Each session explores a different teaching through a book that students read over the course of a month from a list that they help shape during our first session. Book Club also includes an opportunity for community service.
 
We start each session with pizza, cookies and socializing. Starting in October meetings take place every first Friday of the month, from 6:30 to 7:30pm in the Lower Level of the Parish Office. Please note that this offering is not a substitute for traditional faith formation, but a wonderful supplement and a lot of fun!
