Young Adult Ministry

Who Are "Young Adults"?

The Young Adults Ministry is for Catholic young adults in their late teens (17 years), twenties and thirties, both single and married, seeking continued Formation and Community.Their vision of the church is a place where young adults are at home; where their gifts are acknowledged and their lives are supported and nourished; where young adults exercise servant leadership in worship, catechesis, social ministry, and evangelization.

Inviting All to Become One In Christ

The Young Adult Ministry meets on the first Saturday of each month at the Mother Teresa Center from 11:00a to 1:00p. For more information, please contact Holly Betz at 808-371-7279 (text or call).

We know that your talents, and those of other young adults, can enrich the Church and be a sign of God's presence in society. We invite you to share them with us and become part of a welcoming community for other young adults as well. Not too long ago our Holy Father spoke of your importance to the life of the Church. "The Church needs your energies, your enthusiasm, your ideals, in order to make the Gospel of life penetrate the fabric of society, transforming people's hearts and the structures of society in order to create a civilization of true justice and love."

The plan for young adult ministry includes four goals, addressed to a generation that so often feels disconnected from the Church and from society. We are to connect young adults...

• with Jesus Christ
• with the Church
• with the mission of the Church in the world
• with a peer community
