Youth/Young Adults

 

Are you a young adult looking for information about consecrated life or need some guidance as you make life choices and discern God’s call in your life? We are here for you!
CAVA provides opportunities to deepen your understanding of consecrated life and the option to choose a life as a Brother, Sister, priest, or other forms of consecrated life.
CAVA also works collaboratively with other groups to assist in supporting young adults grow in their relationship with God and to answer God’s call to missionary discipleship.

GOD HAS A SPECIAL PLAN FOR YOUR LIFE

“God has a special plan for your life and wants you to have support in discovering that plan. Call me for information and guidance in the desire you feel toward priesthood. Practical help makes the practice of listening to God easier. It takes courage to make that first call, and you will appreciate that you did.”
