Encountering Christ by Helping Others (E.C.H.O) is our middle school youth ministry night. During the School Year we will meet on Tuesday evenings at a New Time from 6:30-8:00pm in the Parish Hall. Students who ware in the 6th-8th grade are invited to come together to enjoy an evening of games, discussions, engaging stories, Christian music videos, and small group activities. Our topics & themes include Lessons from Sunday's Mass Readings, Lives of the Saints, and How to Survive Middle School. E.C.H.O is not another class in the day, it is an evening that connects students in deeper friendships with their peers and with God. It is a great mixture of Food, Fun, and Faith. Middle School students from any school may begin this program at any time of the year.

Our ECHO meetings for the Winter/Spring are as follows:

February: 21s & 28th
March: 16th, 13th, 20th, 27th
April: 3rd, 10th, 17th, 24th

*Please download a Youth Ministry Registration Form from the Documents Tab on the right side of this page
and bring it with your student to our next ECHO Youth Night.

Parent's, if you plan on dropping your student off for one of these nights, then please consider joining our rotating schedule of parent helpers. Dad's are encouraged to help with set-up and take down, while Mom's are invited to help with serving snacks and clean-up. Or both are invited to commit for a season to help lead small group discussions and activities with our Core Team. Please email Chris at croth@magdalenwichita.com to see how you can get started.
