About: The JCDA offers Catholic girls a great opportunity to engage themselves in spiritual growth, leadership and service while they remain under the protective umbrella of our Catholic faith.
The Catholic Daughters established the Junior Catholic Daughter program in 1926. It is a program for Catholic girls from 6 to 18 years of age. The goals and objectives of the JCDA program are divided into a Threefold Program of: Message; Service; and Community.
JCDA is an opportunity for girls to serve the community, create lasting friendships and grow in faith. Our goal is to develop the desire to live lives of service to others.
Membership is divided into two groups:
JUNIORETTE: 6-10 years
JUNIOR: 11-18 years
Our goals:
- Promote the development of the whole person through programs of self-identity, personal growth, and friendship.
- Promote service to others in the parish, community, and JCDA.
- Encourage spiritual growth by providing opportunities for personal prayer, liturgy, and by understanding of our Christian faith.
- Encourage programming that is open, flexible, and creative to current needs and concerns.
