Young Adult Ministry
The goal of the Young Adult Ministry is to build up a community of young adults that is rooted in friendship with Christ. We do this through a variety of social events, spiritual formation, and participation in the life of the Church.
Ongoing Events:
"In His Presence"- Young adults from the diocese of Victoria gather on the 2nd Tuesday of the month from August to May for Mass, Adoration, and pizza. (see flyer below for more information).
Truth on Tap series- Young adults from the diocese meet once a month over a meal/drink and a talk related to Christian life and culture. Series begins in the fall and ends in late spring.
Young Adult Retreats-The youth and young adult office seeks to provide at least one retreat for young adults each year. Opportunities for other retreats hosted by organizations in and outside of out diocese will be posted on our social media pages.
The best way to stay up-to-date on young adult events both in and outside the diocese is by following our social media platforms.
