Leadership
Welcome
Hey!
My name is Joe Austin. I am the director of youth and young adult ministry with the diocese of Springfield and I am thrilled to welcome you to our website for Young and Catholic, the official young adult effort in the diocese. Below you'll find the faces of the young adult leaders of Young and Catholic. They are very excited to meet you and get to know you! And if you've ever considering being a leader with Young and Catholic, we'd love to hear from you! 413 - 276 - 5134
