Listening, Belonging, and Mission

  • Listening, Belonging, and Mission

  • In the spirit of St. Francis and St. Clare, this survey invites youth and young adults to share their experiences of faith, community, and belonging within Franciscan parishes, ministries, and organizations.

    Your responses will help the Province of Our Lady of Guadalupe's Office of Youth & Young Adult Ministry understand what is working well, where young people feel disconnected, and how we can respond more faithfully to your needs.

    This survey is confidential. Your honest input will directly inform listening sessions and future planning across our Franciscan network.

    If you have any questions, please reach out to Chris Rivera, director of the Office of Youth and Young Adult Ministry, at crivera@friars.us.
