Cairns Catholic Youth Ministry encourages and supports young people in the life of the Church.
Our vision is guided by the Australian Catholic Bishops’ goals for comprehensive youth ministry, which are:
- To foster the personal and spiritual growth of each young person
- To draw young people into responsible participation in the life, mission, and work of the Catholic faith community
- To empower young people to live as disciples of Jesus Christ in our world today.
