YOUNG ADULT MINISTRY VISION STATEMENT
We recognize and celebrate the vital role women and men in their 20s and 30s, single and married, play in the church and the wider community. We connect young adults with Jesus Christ, with the church and its mission, and with other young adults through:
-
Training and resources to those who minister with young adults in parishes, young adult organizations, and other institutions; and...
-
Direct diocesan programs and services.
