Latin for “Keep the Faith,” Serva Fidem exists to form high school students into intentional disciples who will carry their faith through college and into the rest of their lives. At Ss. John and Paul, high school students are invited to participate in small groups alongside their peers, where they can dive deeper into their Catholic faith, build meaningful relationships, ask honest questions, and explore how to pursue virtue in their everyday lives. Each group is intentionally paired with a strong Catholic mentor who can relate to the students, walk with them through their high school years, and guide them beyond.
Are you a student interested in starting a Serva Fidem group, or an adult discerning becoming a mentor? Contact our Serva Fidem coordinator, Caroline Schultz, for more information.
Serva Fidem is hosting a Summer Youth Conference, Ad Astra from July 17-18, 2026 at Grand View University in partnership with the Diocese of Des Moines. This is open to current and potential Serva Fidem teens. Tap or click for more information!
