Young Adult Ministry
As a community of Catholic young adults, the purpose of this ministry is to encourage young adults to connect their faith to their everyday life, and to spend time with people who share Catholic values and morals. The center of this ministry is to offer a venue that will foster young adults to learn more about their Catholic faith and traditions in accordance with Church teaching and the Catechism, thereby supporting young adults to live out their baptismal promises. Throughout the year, we will provide a variety of events and activites that will offer opportunities for faith formation, community service and fellowship. The Young Adult Ministry will support individual and group participation in service programs throughout the parishes within the diocese of Fresno and within the broader community.
