Spirit & Truth

Spirit & Truth is a Catholic ministry, whose mission is "to bring young adults into relationship with Christ through worship of Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament, study of church teachings and sacred scripture and celebrations of Catholic traditions, while forming a community of life-giving relationships."   Young Adults meet for Eucharistic Adoration and fellowship afterwards at a local restaurant.

The National Catholic Young Adult Ministry Association (NCYAMA)

The National Catholic Young Adult Ministry Association (NCYAMA) is an organization supporting those who minister to and with single and married people in their late teens, twenties, and thirties. We develop and promote programs and resources while providing opportunities for networking and communication. We advocate for the full integration of young adults in the life of the Catholic faith community in order to connect them with Jesus, the Church, the mission of the Church, and their peers.
NCYAMA was established in 1982 and was run by an all-volunteer Board until August 2001, when grant money assisted NCYAMA in establishing its first National Office and hiring its first Executive Director. The Board of Directors is currently made up of 8 representatives from around the nation, which includes an Executive Committee.
