Searching for Colleges?
Many Catholic colleges offer secular and religious degree programs, encouraging Catholic students of all backgrounds to stay connected with their faith. However, with over 250 Catholic colleges in the country, it can be difficult for Catholic students to narrow down their decision.The BestColleges.org is here to help with our 2017 guide to choosing a Catholic college. In addition to connecting students with accredited Catholic colleges, this resource provides tips on what questions students should ask to find a school that fits their needs.

WELCOME ENCOUNTER FAMILIES
FOR THE UPCOMING FALL 2020, ALL SESSIONS WILL BE HELD VIRTUALLY OVER ZOOM
Hello Encounter Families! Encounter is a high school program designed to lead 9th-12th graders into not only a deeper relationship with Jesus Christ and His Church, but with others their age. It is important, especially in the current state of the world, that the youth don’t feel like they have to believe alone. We hope to provide them with a community where they can create relationships with their peers that last a lifetime so that they can
grow in their faith together.
Through fun activities, small groups, catechesis and theology, and engaging conversations with other high schoolers, your teens embark on their journey to deepen their relationship with Christ. We also offer retreats, service projects, youth masses, and summer events. The goal is to bring our Catholic faith to the teens in a way that inspires them to live out the Gospel each and every day of their life.
Encounter is also a prerequisite in order for your teens to become confirmed! Please click here to read more about Confirmation.
We hope to see your high schoolers at Encounter!
