SAINT JOSEPH ACADEMY FOLLOWS SAINT MARCELLIN CHAMPAGNAT’S VISION
TO LEAD YOUNG PEOPLE TO KNOW AND LOVE JESUS AND MARY IN THE BELIEF THAT THEY ALL CAN BECOME GOOD CHRISTIANS AND GOOD CITIZENS
10
Saint Joseph Academy follows Saint Marcellin Champagnat ’ s vision. At SJA, we lead young people to know and love Jesus and Mary, believing that they all can become good Christians and citizens. We welcome all young people, whatever their circumstances, offering each one an education that draws faith, culture, and life into harmony.
Every day is started in prayer, taking a moment to pause, reflect and pray for each other and those around us. Every student is invited to attend monthly Liturgies, which are a collaboration between our students, local priests, and our Campus Ministry Department.
Saint Joseph Academy offers comprehensive courses in theology, a requirement of every grade. These courses enrich our students and they address the personal and spiritual needs of the entire SJA family
GRADE LEVEL RETREATS Retreats are a necessary component of faith formation and campus ministry. Our retreat program is designed to provide an annual reflective experience for each student. This ensures that all students continually develop their own personal relationship with God, collectively build unity with their peers as a class, and process their growth as they mature as teenagers. During these off-campus retreats, students address questions of personal faith, build community, participate in challenging activities, and join in prayer experiences - all appropriate for their age level. These annual class retreats provide opportunities for students to grow into:
12
• Faith-filled disciples
• Servant leaders
• Empowered witnesses
• Agents of justice and peace
• Spirit-filled members of family & community
COMMUNITY SERVICE
All students will be required to perform the required amount of hours of service per grade level each semester. Examples of service opportunities include:
• Direct Service to the poor.
• Service with organizations that indirectly serve the poor. (In this case, students should be prompted to consider how their work indirectly served the poor)
• Service at or for a Church or faith community.
• Service at City or County organizations and/or organized event
