​Belonging

Built on a foundation of diversity, equity, inclusion, belonging, and Christ's Commandments to love God and our neighbor, UCYM's programs are consistently in lockstep with making sure anyone who comes through our doors can discern a place where they can feel they belong and use their God-given gifts to serve the community and the Church.

For All People

We are a ministry that embraces the rich traditions of anyone who comes through our doors. The Church is richer for her diversity and not just for it, but when we embrace and celebrate it. ​

Pastoral Juvenil Hispana

Pastoral Juvenil Hispana (PJH) is ministry to, with, and for young people with a focus on the reality of Hispanic/Latiné people. PJH is very focused on accompaniment and action. The national movement for Hispanic Ministry, the V Encuentro, played a crucial role in us learning how we can listen to our young Hispanic/Latiné people and respond to the needs and dreams they voice.

LGBTQ+ Community

We are a ministry dedicated to being welcoming, inclusive of, equitable to, and loving and accepting of our LGBTQ+ siblings. Our spaces, both physical and digital, promote safety and prosperity for our LGBTQ+ siblings. ​

Interfaith Community

We are a ministry that collaborates with and values other Christian denominations and religions. Our motto states that all are welcome here...and they are. Through dialogue, service action, and respect for each other's traditions, UCYM embraces a rich interfaith connection. ​
