The theme we have chosen for 2025-2026 school year is “God’s Masterpiece” and comes from Eph 2:10, “For we are God’s masterpiece, created in Christ Jesus to do good works.” This theme reflects the mission of our parish which is to Discover Jesus, Follow & Worship Jesus and to Share Jesus. As God’s Masterpiece, we use our head to KNOW Jesus, our heart to LOVE Jesus and our hands to LIVE as Jesus.

You are not the future of the Church. You ARE the Church.

Mission Statement

Our mission is to guide children to draw close to Jesus and shine His light through their words and actions.

Faith Development

The St. John Faith Development program will develop engaged Catholics through prayer, sacraments, God’s Word and service.

Why choose St. John Faith Development?

You are your child’s first and most important teacher. The choices your child will make as an adult will be influenced by your example. By participating in Faith Development here at St. John Nepomucene you are setting an example that, no matter how busy our lives are, a life of faith is important. Your child’s formation as a disciple of Christ will set the foundation for lifelong faith and devotion to God.

The Faith Development program helps children form deeper relationships with God, their families and the church community through learning how to apply Bible lessons and values to daily life, and through experiences of prayer, worship and service.

Youth Ministry

Youth Ministry at St. John Nepomucene Catholic Community offers retreats, quarterly events, diocesan conferences, and service opportunities for youth and their families.

We strive to create opportunities for young people to live out the Gospel in their everyday lives, blending their faith with all they do, rather than separating it from the rest of their experiences. Our prayer is for our youth to deepen their roots, to allow their faith influence everything they encounter.

There are eight core values we use as a foundation for our Youth Ministry and they consist of:
