We want to invite everyone in our parish ages 18-35 to join us each week to build community, dive into our faith, and commit ourselves to service.
We meet almost every Thursday at 7 pm, usually in the basement here at St. James, and usually with some sort of snack. There’s no obligation to attend each week, but we would love to see you there!
