Looking for a community with a professional focus grounded in Catholic values? Your 20s and 30s can be a confusing and lonely time, but they don't have to be. Come and see.
Attend a YCP event and join like-minded, mission-driven peers to find God in all things and seek excellence and joy in every area of your life.
YCP brings together young workers and seasoned business professionals in a variety of programs to foster Catholic identity, encourage community, and inspire action.
St. Joseph Saturdays are retreats open to the public that encourage young professionals to "look upon work with the eyes of faith" and see God's presence in their vocations and professional lives. Retreats include time for guided reflections, group discussion, confession, and Mass. They especially encourage reflection on the life of our YCP patron, St. Joseph the Worker, and the St. Joseph prayer we recite as a YCP community at the end of each event.

YCP retreats encourage young adults to "look upon work with the eyes of faith" and see God's presence in their vocations and professional lives. They are important tools to help young people integrate their spiritual and professional lives and to encourage a supportive community among young professionals as we all strive for holiness.
