  The St. Mary's Berea Teen Faith Program is for the all 8th & 9th graders in the Parish.  It is 4 / 5 week sessions. There are a series of topics,  all dealing with issues that surround the Christian youth of our parish . . . and our society.  The sessions are held Sunday a/or Monday evenings throughout the year depending on Catechist availability.  This program has been established to "bridge the gap" between PSR, where we learn about our faith, and Confirmation, where we accept our faith.
