Musical

Each year the High School Youth Ministry program puts on a musical for the whole Parish. The cast and crew are members of St. Joan of Arc and high school students. Auditions are usually in December, and the play is put on in the spring. All high school students are welcome to try out, and adult volunteers are needed.
