Young Adults

Veritas | St. Philip Young Adults

Faith. Friendship. Belonging.

There is a place for you here!

Veritas is our young adult network, a welcoming Catholic community for adults ages 21 and older who are seeking friendship, faith, and a place to belong.

Whether you are single, dating, engaged, married, raising a family, new to the parish, or simply looking for community, there is a place for you here. We gather for prayer, Scripture, fellowship, service, and the everyday joy of growing in Christ together.

Veritas aims to help young adults grow as lifelong Catholics, rooted in the sacraments and active in the life of the Church.

Join our GroupMe to meet people, share ideas, receive invitations, and stay connected with upcoming gatherings.

UCAT WillCo | Ages 18-20

UCAT WillCo is a chapter of a diocesan-wide Catholic ministry serving college-aged young adults.

Whether you are in college, working, taking classes, or figuring out your next step, UCAT WillCo is a place to find friendship, faith, and community with other young adults in a similar season of life.

Weekly gatherings take place most Mondays from 6:30–8:00 p.m. and include food, fellowship, prayer, formation, service, and opportunities to grow as disciples of Jesus Christ.

Help Build Community

Serve With Youth Ministry

Young adults are invited to serve with Edge and Connect through small groups, activities, hospitality, retreats, and more.

Serving is a great way to build relationships, share your faith, and help younger students encounter Christ.
