Young Adult Ministry
Adults in their 20s and 30s
This ministry is for young adults in their 20’s and 30’s. Activities this past year ranged
from trivia nights to social outings and opportunities to gather for Mass, Adoration, and
Faith-based activities. The Young Adult Ministry is growing and we would love to have you
join us at our next event. Monthly happy hours are a great opportunity to join and meet
our young adults. We participate in Catholic Sports Leagues and host kickball in the fall.
