St. Catherine's Youth Page

J2A
Grades 8 - 9

     Journey to Adulthood (J2A) is the core program, which blends action and contemplation in teaching young people faithful living. To prepare them for adulthood, they learn six basic skills:

· Active listening
· Negotiation
· Assertion
· Research/information management
· Partnership
· Leadership

     The program also helps them understand and affirm Christian living. After two years, they are given an opportunity for Confirmation and are acknowledged in the community as equipped for new levels of responsibility. They are recognized as young adults, rather than children, and invited to make a holy pilgrimage.
