ABOUT US
Please note that this group is specifically for men and women ages 18-39.
The St. James Young Adult Group (YAG) was created as a way for people in and around the Davis area to join in fellowship and deepen their Catholic faith. While we are brought together through our shared faith, we are as diverse as any other segment of society. One program or activity does not fit all, and we hope to bring topics and activities of all ranges to this group to cater to the diversity and individuality of all our members. We strive to empower you to explore your gifts and discern your place in the Catholic Church and the wider Christian community.
Whether you are seeking a moment of reflection or a sense of community, we cannot wait to welcome you!
What You Can Expect At YAG
Shared Meals Together
We learn in the Bible that sharing a meal together is one of the primary ways relationships are established, deepened, and enjoyed both with God and with others. If we neglect table fellowship, we miss one of the wonderful ways God builds authentic community in the Church.
Guest Presentations
We strive to bring guest speakers with a broader perspective on how faith can be lived out in different ways. Presentations can cover a wide range of topics from scripture to moral and ethical guidance to film analyses through a Catholic lens. (Believe it or not, we had a very excited member analyze the movie The Blues Brothers from a Catholic perspective). No topic is off limits, though we do keep it Catholic and respectful.
Music and Movies
While we love to grow in faith, we also love to grow in fellowship. In addition to scholarly ventures, we also gather for fun extracurriculars. The occasional music show. Grabbing a drink downtown. Catching the latest blockbuster. Or a game night at someone’s house. You never know what fun we will get into.
