College can be an exciting place! Get connected with one of our campus ministries to find Bible studies, small groups, or a new friend on campus.Â

The young adult Body of Christ is always inspired and active in OC! Join one of the several experiences in our Diocese to strengthen your faith, enliven your spirit, and live out your discipleship.
