The Young Adult Ministry of the Archdiocese of New York<\/a> serves the ministers and leaders who catechize and evangelize young adults (18-35 years old).<\/p>\n

Organizers say these are young people who \u201cseek a personal and active relationship with Jesus Christ and His Church, and desire to put their faith into action.\u201d They serve fellow young faithful as volunteers during holy hours, Masses, retreats, and regularly scheduled meetings. Some of the parish gatherings are bilingual (English and Spanish).<\/p>\n

\u201cWe bring young adults together so that they can feel in community, in gatherings where they can feel needed to serve the Lord\u2019s Church,\u201d Salomon Cari\u00f1o, director of Coraz\u00f3n Puro<\/a>, the Bronx-based outreach ministry, told The Good Newsroom in a June 26 phone interview. \u201cAnd we invite them to serve on our various committees.\u201d Cari\u00f1o cited the significance of Young Adult Holy Hours and liturgies as important ways to guide the young faithful in their spiritual growth.<\/p>\n

Father John Higgins, pastor of Holy Cross Church<\/a> in the Bronx, said, \u201cYoung people are looking more than ever to connect with God. The Eucharist is God\u2019s greatest gift to us because it is Jesus Himself. It seems that when young people realize what the Eucharist is, they respond with genuine love and devotion.\u201d<\/p>\n
