Mass and Mingle

Looking for a young adult faith community?

Mass & Mingle is a new social opportunity for 20- and 30-something Catholics in the Greater Boston area to meet new friends while also engaging with faith and spirituality. Once a month, young adults are invited to attend the 5pm Sunday Mass at St. Ignatius Parish, followed by a one-hour social.

Each Mass & Mingle has food, drinks (alcoholic and non-alcoholic), trivia prizes, and "a big question" to spark conversation about how we can “find God in all things.”

All are welcome!
