Middle school is a pivotal time of growth, discovery, and community-building. To support our young parishioners, St. Angela Merici Church is thrilled to invite all 6th, 7th, and 8th graders to our vibrant Middle School Youth Ministry, Ignite 678. This ministry is beautifully designed to help students grow in their Catholic faith through a welcoming environment centered around faith, friends, and fun.

Throughout the 2026-2027 calendar year, our youth will explore foundational spiritual topics—such as morality, social justice, and the sacraments—while building lasting friendships. We balance our spiritual learning with joyful fellowship, including a Community Service night on February 5, a memorable Pancake & Pajama Party on December 11, and a celebratory Game Night to close out the year on May 14!

Here are the practical details for your family:

• Who: Open to all 6th, 7th, and 8th graders
• When: Scheduled evenings from 6:30 PM to 8:30 PM
• Where: The St. Pier Room at St. Angela Merici Church
• Questions? Please reach out to our wonderful contacts, Kim & Joe Russell, by calling 714-529-1821 or emailing samignite678@gmail.com.
