Seekers

We all seek Truth. We all seek God!

Seekers is the SJE Youth Ministry Program is for our 2nd & 3rd grade students. Following our model of a "Continuum of Care", Seekers stresses the importance of positive interaction and a Christ-centered environment. As these students prepare for First Reconciliation and First Holy Communion, the Seekers Program offers additional catechesis and fun outside the classroom!

Seekers meet on the 1st Friday of the month from 6:30-7:45 pm. View the Seekers Schedule for the specific location of each event. (Note: This program only meets during the school year.) We are always looking for Virtus-trained adults to volunteer as well.
