The office for Youth and Young Adult Ministry is in the process of adding additional service opportunities for young adults. We are now offering parish placements as part of the Young Adult Service Team.
As part of this, teams will be sent to rural or under-resourced parishes and parish clusters to work in youth ministry through.
This is just one of six ministry areas a person can work in through the Young Adult Service Team.
Check back in a few weeks for updated ministry descriptions and the 2010-2011 application.
If you know a young adult ages 21-29 who is interested in serving in youth and young adults in ministry encourage them to consider the Young Adult Service Team.
