The Young Adult Ministry of the Diocese of Allentown is dedicated to fostering the spiritual growth of Catholics aged 18-38,  inspiring them to embrace a sustained journey of discipleship that extends through college and into all stages of adulthood. We  provide diverse opportunities—spiritual, social, and service-oriented—to connect young adults with Jesus Christ, the broader Church community, and the Church's mission in the world. Our goal is to integrate them into the life of the Church, and equip them to live out the Church's mission in every facet of their daily existence—their work, family relationships, friendships, parish involvement, and engagement with the broader community. We are committed to building a vibrant peer community where faith is nurtured, gifts are shared, and their lives become a testament to Christ's presence in the world.
