THIS WORK​ MATTERS

 

"With some training from Catholic Relations, our Young Life area has been able to engage with our local Catholic community, specifically St. Augustine Catholic Church. One weekend I got to speak at all three Masses. We’ve added a few Catholic leaders to our team, and I have a great relationship with Fr. Paul. Catholics here now see Young Life as the missionary arm of the local church."

-Matthew Erikson, Young Life area director in Whidbey Island, WA

 

 

"I loved Young Life as a kid, but I needed help from the Catholic Relations office when it came to explaining the ministry to my priest and to the Catholic parents at my parish. I now feel prepared as I work to bring Young Life to my kids and their friends in our community.”

-Greg VandenBoom, Catholic parent in Westfield, IN

Young Life is a mission devoted to introducing adolescents to Jesus Christ and helping them grow in their faith.
