ministry groups
wwjd? most likely, join one of our groups!
"Church" consists of more than a priest or a building or a prayer. A healthy church is built upon the efforts its parishioners dedicate to fellowship and community-building.
Whether you're a teen or young adult, bookworm or athlete, we've got a group for you! Are you looking for an inclusive safe space? We've got a group for you! ¿Prefieres orar en español? ¡Tenemos un grupo para ti!
(If you can't already tell, we're all about our ministry groups...come find out why!)
YOUNG ADULTS OF SFDS
As the largest growing group in the parish, we aim to provide a special welcome to young adult parishioners looking for a church to call home in a busy neighborhood. We participate in the life of the parish in many ways, including organizing our own events and collaborating with other parish groups around social and service opportunities.
