Check out this page, and the linked pages on the side, to learn about who we are, what we do, and how your faith can be changed by involvement in our ministries.

We may be young, but we are called to greatness. We are called to build up this world and to desire that everyone we meet takes that next step towards Sainthood with us. Pope St. John Paul the II put it well when he said, “The future is in your hearts and in your hands. God is entrusting to you the task, at once difficult and uplifting, of working with Him in the building of the civilization of love.”
