young adult group in your parish???

Want a Young Adult Group in your parish or Cluster?

Young Adult Ministry is undergoing some changes!

We will be working towards building up stronger parish based programs while continuing the large service projects, Theology on Taps and even some new events!

If you are interested (you are NOT volunteering for anything, I promise!) please contact Erin through email - erinhammond@sbcglobal.net

Also - Our office is no longer at Cathedral Parish, we've moved to St Joseph's in Lebanon and to McKendree University. Thank you to Cathedral Parish for all of your support and storage space!

Last Chance to apply for Summer Mission Trip to Tijuana...

Deadline: June 12
Price: $350 - for flight, food and lodging.
Dates: July 23 - 31 (also the locals are asked to attend Novena Mass on August 1 at Shrine)

This trip is in conjunction with the Missionary Oblates of Mary Immaculate and their Novena to Our Lady of the Snows. It includes time for service work, visiting with the people we will be serving, and retreat and prayer opportunities. This is a once in a lifetime chance to change the world while changing yourself! Please email with any questions!
