Mission Statement

The Diocese of Gary OYYA serves those who serve the young Catholic Church.

Vision Statement

Through collaboration with parish leaders and youth-serving organizations, the Diocese of Gary OYYA seeks to nurture the total personal and spiritual enrichment of our youth and young adults, and to call them to full participation in the life, mission, and work of the faith community as portrayed by Jesus in the Gospels.

Young Adults for Catholic Charities: We're looking for Catholic young adults throughout Northwest Indiana ready to be a part of something great! YACC serves Catholic Charities, the social services agency of the Diocese of Gary. We need young adults- single and married, college students, 20's and 30's- ready to lead and serve a variety of projects that will benefit the hundreds of people served by Catholic Charities. And along the way, we'll pray together and play together too!


For those of you who were a part of “Generation Christ” Symposium for Catholic Young Adults, thanks for being part of something special! One of the themes that surfaced often throughout the day was a genuine desire to network with other Catholic young adults in Northwest Indiana.

As Facebook has become arguably THE means of social networking, we have decided to expand the “Generation Christ” Facebook group site. “Generation Christ” is no longer just an event, it is the name we’ve given to a renewed outreach to Catholic young adults, college-aged, singles and marrieds, 18-30’s, in Northwest Indiana. Join today!
