Young Catholic Adults, single or married, in their 20s or 30s, are invited to participate. Young adult ministry has one purpose: to connect young Catholic adults with other people and programs that respond to Young Adult needs; programs like: Theology on Tap, Dinner-Speaker Series, Spirit and Truth, and more. If you would like to be on our email list, please email Matt at mkrumdrick@stjudes.org
It is a time for young people to come before God with their worries, troubles, sins and questions, in the company of like-minded people in search of the truth. This age group is often unsettled in their vocations and constantly questioning the world, the Church and themselves. Because of the intense prayer that occurs at a Spirit & Truth meeting, many people feel very clear and peaceful upon departing. It resembles a mini-retreat. Young adult life can also be a lonely time for many. Spirit & Truth becomes a very consoling place for those who desire to be in the company of others who are also in similar places in their lives. Rather than provide this age group with merely social events, this initiative offers young people the opportunity to go deep in their relationship with God while forming relationships that are rooted in more than good food and drink. The young people who attend Spirit & Truth will undoubtedly find peace in Christ, bonded friendships, the truths of our faith and life in the Holy Spirit.
