Young Adult Ministry

The Catholic Church considers those young people between the ages 18 and 39 as part of the young adult community. However in that variety of life stages there are dynamic differences within this particular community. Some young adults are in college, others are working; there are singles, engaged couples, married couples with and without children.  

The Dept. of Youth and Young Adult Ministries serves to challenge the young adult community by witness and relationship with Christ through ongoing formation, events, and opportunities. 

Please be sure to check the events calendar , you’ll see events that are organized out of this office as well as from young adult communities throughout  Monmouth, Mercer, Ocean, and Burlington counties.
 

The Diocese of Trenton invites you to join us in Washington D.C.

For the first time in 25 years, the World Youth Day Cross, that has stood at every World Youth Day since it's inception, is making a multi-city tour across the United States. The Diocese of Trenton invites all young adults over the age of 18 to join us in Washington D.C. as we represent our diocese during a day of pilgrimage, prayer and fellowship with other young adults from across the nation.

This day-long event begins with a pilgrimage through Washington D.C. starting at the National Mall and ending at the National Shrine of the Immaculate Conception. Throughout the day, there will be opportunities for prayer and reflection lead by local-area bishops and a keynote address by Sister Miriam James Heidland of the Society of Our Lady of the Most Holy Trinity (SOLT) from Corpus Christi, TX.
