CATHOLIC YOUTH MINISTRY SPORTS

The Office for Catholic Youth Ministry empowers parishes, schools, and ministries within the Catholic Diocese of Wilmington to serve the Church by equipping and accompanying young people and the adults who walk with them to have authentic encounters with Jesus Christ and become true missionary disciples of the Gospel in the world. We accomplish this mission by hosting dynamic spiritual events, facilitating leadership and formation opportunities for young people and adults, and promoting Christian Values through the CYM Sports program.
