Ministering Adults  is an organization of men and women aged 18 through 30 + .  It  has been active at Our Lady of Refuge parish for many years, and is currently in a stage of renewal   Its purpose is to bring like-minded young Catholic adults together where they have a supportive and “fun place” to participate in the life of the parish, the local community and the larger Church.  

Ministering Adults  has a three-fold objective.   

Spiritual Growth  

It encourages the spiritual growth of members  through retreats, seminars, discussions and presentations by guest speakers.  Topics covered at spiritual growth gatherings are pertinent to the needs of young adults who are seeking to find and carry out their roles in life through marriage, dedicated service, career and ministry.

Social Life  

It provides a place where young adults can make friends and have fun with each other.   Members work to see that the Young Adult group is a “fun place to be”, a place where friendships can be made and nourished.  The group it has its own volleyball and softball teams, and sponsors evenings at the movies, pizza nights, beach parties and other social gatherings.

Community Service 

The Ministering Adult group recognizes that Christian life means service and giving to people in need.  Over the years it has sponsored trips to the Good Shepherd Home where members help children from broken homes.  Each year it prepares Mothers Day baskets for unwed mothers at the Precious Life Shelter, and in December it helps with the Christmas Giving Tree project of the Foreign Mission Outreach ministry.
