Antioch is a community of high school teenagers seeking to live as intentional disciples of Christ. Antioch offers opportunities to grow and live out the faith through prayer, catechesis, community and service. Meetings are held year-round on Thursday nights in our Antioch meeting space in Columbus Hall. There are also weekend retreats held in the Spring and Fall.

​

GET INVOVLED: Join the crew; stop by on any Thursday! Adults look for ways to support Antioch by helping with retreat weekends or donating snacks or meals. Contact Jacob and Sydney Imus for more information: antiochmishawaka@gmail.com

CGS is a common religious experience involving children and adults in which the religious values of childhood, primarily those values of contemplation and enjoyment of God are predominant. This experience is shared in a place particularly prepared for the religious life of children called the Atrium. Our Atrium currently educates pre-K through 2nd grade students.

​

GET INVOLVED: Volunteer to help in the atrium or help make supplies for the different works offered. If you are interested in learning how to become a catechist contact Jackie Moody at jmoody@stmonicamish.org
