Young Adult Ministry
Welcome to the New Hampshire Young Adults’ web page!
This webpage is meant to be a resource for Catholic young adults in New Hampshire looking to connect to others in their extended faith community. From here, you can plug into our Facebook group or join our e-mail list, both of which will keep you aware of upcoming events. You will also find articles written by local young adults on our resource page. Please feel free to contact us if you would like to be involved in helping us get the word out!
In Christ,

Our Mission
Our mission as the Diocesan Young Adult Core Team is to help bring about a greater awareness of young adult activity and to assist those who facilitate young adult ministry in the Catholic Church in New Hampshire. We look to do this through prayer, promoting events, providing resources, supporting priests and young adults, and participating in young adult events. It is our prayer that all young adults in the Church find their place among God’s people.
We, as Catholic young adults, adhere to the teachings of the Church including the teachings on the sacraments, contraception, the sanctity of life, and papal infallibility. As Core Team members, we strive to live holy and fulfilling lives.
