About Us
St. Anthony and St. Mary (STAM) Faith Formation & Youth Ministry brings our two communities together to 1) Build the domestic church 2) Empower young people to live as disciples of Jesus Christ, 3) Draw young people to responsible participation in the life and work of the Catholic faith community, and 4) Foster total, personal, and spiritual growth of each young person.
Our two parishes have come together to engage and empower the next generation of Catholics. Please look around the website and contact us with any questions. We hope you will join us at our Youth Ministry events or sign up for our Religious Education program.

Youth Ministry
STAM Youth Ministry gives teens a fun and engaging atmosphere to explore their faith while enjoying time with friends. Youth Ministry participates in both local and national events like Steubenville Youth Conference and Love Begins Here. We also host regular meetings and activities in the Menomonee Falls area. Our youth participate in mission trips, retreats, traditional and experiential catechesis, service, and social opportunities.
Faith Formation
Faith Formation offers dynamic and diverse opportunities for families to grow in their relationship with Christ and His Church.
Families are invited to deepen their relationship with God through our Family Religious Education Program, providing ways for families to integrate the faith into their daily lives.
Middle school and high school students are invited to deepen their relationship with God through small group discussions in addition to the resources available in our Family Religious Education Program.
Our Catechesis of the Good Shepherd faith formation program is deeply rooted in Scripture and Liturgy and based on the educational philosophy of Maria Montessori. Serving children ages 3 to 12, the CGS program occurs in a place specially prepared to nurture the religious life of the child, referred to as an atrium. In the atrium, children and adults share a common religious experience in which the religious values of childhood, primarily those of contemplation and enjoyment of God, are predominant.
