Young Adult Ministry

The Office of Young Adult Ministry serves as a source of community, spiritual growth and support for those between the ages 18 and 39. We believe in the irreplaceable value found in faith-based communities, and are inspired to offer a place of fellowship to all young adults in our diocese, whether student or graduate, single or married, with or without children.

We gather together to learn about our Catholic heritage and grow in faith, both through events and informal get-togethers. We assist in planning and publicizing events and activities, offer advice and serve as a liaison and advocate for all young adult Catholics within the diocese. 

Diocesan Young Adult Core Team

We are looking for additional members from all the areas. We meet twice a year in person and have about four conference calls a year. For more information e-mail Sr. Margaret or call her at (850) 435-3523.

Calling all young adults and those who know, live, or work with young adults

To involve young people in preparations for the Synod of Bishops on youth in 2018, the Vatican has released an online questionnaire to better understand the lives, attitudes and concerns of 16- to 29-year-olds around the world. The questionnaire can be found on the synod’s official site and is open to any young person, regardless of faith or religious belief.

In keeping with the October 2018 synod on “Young people, faith and vocational discernment”, the diocesan young adult ministry has developed two surveys so that we can better meet the needs of the young adults in our diocese.
