Ministries of Teaching / Evangelizing

Many confirmed adults and confirmed teens are needed to share the love of God with our young people as catechists. Please consider sharing your gifts, talents, and faith as a catechist. Detailed lesson plans and all materials are provided. 2-3 hours a month (includes class prep) while classes are in session. Adults must complete a Protecting God’s Children Workshop to volunteer and teens must complete a Healthy Relationships Workshop to volunteer.

Classes are underway—but please contact the Religious Ed Office at Ext. 111 or by email if you would like to be placed in this programming.

Willing to be called on short notice should a regular catechist be unable to be present. Based on your availability.

Ministers are needed to lead the children in unfolding the Scriptures at a level they can understand and learn from. Takes place weekly during the 10:00 AM Mass (year round with the exception of holiday weekends). Leaders are asked for a once or twice a month commitment, to be scheduled on a rotating basis. We are also in need of any high school or middle school students interested in assisting!

T.A.G. (Teens And God) is St. Anastasia’s junior youth group for 6th-8th graders. We gather once a month to share our faith, be with friends, have fun and eat some food. All are welcome! Adult or High School teen help is always needed with: small group leading, setting up, serving food and clean up.
The commitment would be approximately 2-3 hours once a month, on Tuesday evenings, for 8 sessions.

Adults and Teens are needed to make this June event a success!
This year’s “camp” is for Preschool—5th graders and is Monday—Thursday. We need assistance in all areas including: Station leaders, crew leaders, planning, decorating, set up, clean up, and more! More information will come out in late April / early May, but please sign up now if you are interested in helping and/or would like more information.

A new ministry that helps couples and families pray together, grow as disciples and to become more involved in their parish! Small groups (offered in Spanish now, English in the future) gather to discuss materials, share, and pray together over the course of a few years, and these families then go and teach others.

Meets a few times a year (September – June). Jesus told the Disciples: “Go, therefore, and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you.” The Church exists to evangelize. This group works on creative ways to Unleash the Gospel at St. Anastasia.
