Young Men's Group & Young Women's Group
Are you a new young adult at St. Thomas More? We would love to welcome you at one of our faith discussion groups. Our Young Women's and Young Men's groups provide our young adults a space to get connected, build community, grow in faith, and talk about life as a Catholic.
The Young Men's Group meets regularly on Monday evenings, and the Young Women's group meets on Thursday evenings. Please Contact Us if interested, and we will connect you!
Other Events at STM by and for Young AdultsWe are always excited to welcome young adults with new ideas for our community and parish. While there are not currently any regularly scheduled social gatherings, we would love to help revive old traditions or start new ones for our parish young adults. Contact Us any time to get involved.

([email protected]) for information about Small Faith Groups.The Young Adult community at St. Thomas More is part of a much larger integrated community within the Diocese. Graduate students and early career faculty at neighboring universities are well represented. Interests and activities frequently include ultimate frisbee and soccer scrimmages, a literary arts magazine, a dedicated running community, dating events, Vocations discernment retreats, movie outings, hiking groups, and Super Smash Bros video game tournaments. Many Young Adults from other parishes across the Diocese regularly interact and share events and opportunities for fun and connection.
There are several informal channels for Triangle-area Catholic Young Adults and Chapel Hill Catholic Young Adults on WhatsApp and GroupMe. These are not officially endorsed or moderated by Saint Thomas More or the Diocese of Raleigh. Please use discretion when participating in social media and group texts.
