The Office of Youth and Young Adult Ministry seeks to recruit, train, empower, and support ministry leaders to minister effectively to youth (in junior high and high school) and young adults (age 18 to 39).  We seek to evangelize our young people, train and mentor them in the Catholic way of life and help them to discern how Jesus is calling them to use their God-given gifts for the good of all God’s people.

Catholic Youth Ministry has 3 Main Goals:
Goal 1: Empowerment
To empower young people to live as disciples of Jesus Christ in our world today. (RTV 9)
Goal 2: Participation
To draw young people to responsible participation in the life, mission, and work of the Catholic faith community. (RTV 11)
Goal 3: Growth
To foster the total personal and spiritual growth of each young person. (RTV 15)

Our department is here to help you accomplish this in your parish or ministry.  We do this by evangelizing young people through large Diocesan events, recruiting, training and forming youth ministry leaders, and supporting parishes and ministries in planning and hiring for youth ministry.  We are guided by Bishop Soto’s strategic plan.

Echoes of worth

Echoes of Worth
Website

Vision: It is the vision that youth discover God’s original plan for human identity, relationships, and sexuality through St John Paul II’s Theology of the Body and are empowered by the Holy Spirit to echo it in their daily lives.

Mission: Echoes of Worth (EoW) mission is to call the young to hear, experience, and live a  weekend retreat focused on understanding the reality of God’s love found in our identity and our purpose. As the body reveals God, our souls respond in worship and praise.

History: While presenting a series on Theology of the Body, three youth ministers were dismayed by their youth’s misunderstanding of human dignity. In response they planned a small lock-in at a parish hall to break open St. John Paul II’s masterpiece. But within six months the Holy Spirit moved to make Echoes of Worth is a multi-diocesan retreat encounter that speaks to the Theology of the Body and it’s relevance for our teens today.
