The Office of Youth and Young Adult Ministry serves the young people of the Diocese of Knoxville by promoting and supporting a framework for Catholic youth ministry. It accomplishes this goal primarily by living and encouraging others to take to heart the eight components found in the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops’ document Renewing the Vision. The eight components are advocacy; catechesis; community life; evangelization; justice, peace, and service; leadership development; pastoral care; and prayer and worship. We hope our ministry will spread the Gospel entrusted to us by Christ to the youngest members of our church and that they in turn will pass the light of the Gospel to others.

Dates: July 8-13, 2013 If you are planning ahead, the next World Youth Day is July 8-13, 2013 in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil!
So many different groups from within the diocese have traveled to WYD via separate plans. Let us know if you will make plans to go in 2013 so that we can connect those that are interested…..possibly a combined effort if needed.
