Encounter Christ

Worship at Pope John Paul II High School

Worship is at the heart of student life at Pope John Paul II High School. Students come together for Weekly Mass, prayer services, and faith-filled gatherings that nurture a deeper relationship with God and foster an active, lifelong commitment to the Catholic faith. Through these shared experiences, students participate fully in the liturgical life of the Church while growing in a supportive community rooted in prayer, service, and discipleship.

Faith in Community

Liturgy, Prayer, and Student-Led Worship

Students gather for Weekly Mass as a central part of campus life, providing regular opportunities to grow in faith, celebrate the Eucharist, and strengthen their relationship with Christ. In addition to weekly class and school liturgies, parents and friends of the school are always welcome to attend. At the beginning of each school year, all students participate in the Mass of the Holy Spirit, celebrated with over 600 students from Catholic schools, Pre-K through college, across the South Sound area.

Beyond Weekly Mass, student-led prayer services provide meaningful opportunities for worship throughout the liturgical year, including during Advent and Lent. Students are encouraged to lead Bible studies, participate in faith-sharing groups, and join the Campus Ministry Team to help foster a vibrant Catholic community rooted in prayer, service, and discipleship.
