The Office of Youth and Young Adult Ministry exists to serve parishes, schools and leaders in forming vibrant ministries that bring young people into a deeper relationship with Jesus Christ and the Church.

“The Office of Youth & Young Adult Ministry is facilitating opportunities to encounter Jesus. When you look at the Gospels, when someone encountered Jesus, it changed them. By ministering to the ministers, we can help youth have an encounter with Jesus that will change their life forever”

“Let’s Partner Together! Whether you are starting a ministry from scratch or looking to strengthen what you have, we are here to accompany you every step of the way.”
