An Initiative of the Rochester Parishes Seeking to Connect Young Adults to Christ and His Church
Volunteer in Your Parish
During COVID-19:
- Volunteer Opportunities specific to COVID-19 are listed below in red.
Did you know that each of us is called to full, conscious, and active participation in the life of the Church? There's so much work to be done at local parishes - work that depends on all the lay faithful. Even if you're not registered at a church, check out our parish page and contact a young adult rep today. They'd be more than happy to get you connected with programs and events! Parishes are especially in need of faith formation, youth ministry, and childcare volunteers right now! Check out the links below for more information!
