Meet our Chaplains
Welcome to Salt & Light: Catholic Young Adults!
We are a community of young adults who are passionate to grow in friendship with Jesus and with each other. We live by His instruction to be the salt of the earth and the light of the world (Matthew 5:13-16)–salt, in that our lives are flavored by the Gospel, and light, in that we are called to offer to all people the Christian witness of warmth of charity and the radiance of truth.
If you are a young adult in your 20’s or 30’s, you belong here!
No matter where you find yourself in your journey of faith, come to grow in friendship with people earnestly seeking to live the Gospel as faithful disciples of Jesus Christ. I, along with my brother priests, would love to accompany you on your journey to greater holiness and peace.
Stay close to Jesus today!
– Fr. Archer & Fr. Samson
