Encounter Young Adult Ministry
A team of active Encounter committee members along with Brenda Chávez, the Director of Young Adult Ministry and Neighborhood Engagement, coordinate all activities for this ministry. Along with planning events at the parish, we make it a priority to invite and welcome folks into the community to participate in rich experiences. This ministry also seeks to increase involvement and elevate voices of younger adult OSP members to integrate ideas for growth into the larger parish community.
