24:7 School Ministry
is a combined work of the Acts 2 College of Mission and Evangelisation and 24:7 Youth Ministry.
It aims to run engaging Reflection Days for schools catering for the Middle School years with a focus on the objectives of the Religious Education programme taught within Catholic Colleges and Primary Schools. 24:7 School Ministry - previously know as Middle School Ministry has been running and rapidly expanding since 2011 and has ministered to thousands of students in this time.
24:7 School Ministry is run alongside Acts 2 College of Mission and Evangelisation, Perth’s only fully registered and accredited Catholic Bible College. The Diploma of Catholic Youth Ministry (11013NAT) course equips students with the skills necessary to assist in the implementation of Reflection Days and running Youth Groups.
The Acts 2 CoME students along with experienced Youth Ministers make up the School Ministry team which conducts Reflections Days for Catholic Colleges and Primary Schools. Mario Borg, lecturer at Acts 2 CoME, with 20 years of teaching experience in Catholic Schools directs the School Ministry.
24:7 SM has developed programmes for retreat and reflection days for students in years 7-8 based on the religious education programme taught in Western Australian colleges. Sacramental Retreat Days have also been developed for implementation within Catholic Primary Schools.
