His Spirit dwells

A community within a community

A place
that’s yours.

A young adult community at Sts. Peter and Paul Parish, for ages 19 to 39.

WITHIN

A community within a community

Young adults 19 to 39

Sts. Peter and Paul Parish

There’s a season the Church doesn’t always know what to do with.

You’ve finished school, or you’re finishing it. You’re starting a career, or changing one. Maybe you’re dating, maybe you’re married, maybe you’re figuring out what you want. You still believe, or you want to, but the parish hasn’t quite had a place that’s yours since Confirmation.

WITHIN is that place.

We’re a young adult community at Sts. Peter and Paul Parish, built for people between 19 and 39. Not a program you sign up for. A community you belong to.

Come to everything. Come to one thing. Come to see what’s there.

The name

Cedar was for temples. Sycamore grew where people lived.

Low branches, common enough that Solomon measured plenty against it, and the one tree in scripture anybody actually climbs. Amos was dressing sycamore figs when God called him. No prophet, and no prophet’s son.

So we named the night after it.

The heart of it

One night a month.
Everyone together.

Last Tuesday of the month

6:30 to 9:00 PM

Sycamore is where the whole community gathers. Dinner, real conversation, and something worth staying for. It’s also where we lay out everything happening the month ahead, so if you only ever come to one thing, come to this.

Open to all young adults, 19 to 39. No registration, no commitment, no experience necessary. Just show up.

Pentecost Party

The season closes with a celebration.

The rest of the month

Pick what fits.

Most of it runs once a month. The sports and salsa run weekly. You are not expected at all of it.

Formation & faith

Men’s Bible Study

Scripture, honestly. A room of men working through the text together and talking about what it actually asks of us.

Monthly

Women’s Bible Study

Scripture, community, and space to bring your real life to it. Runs the same evening as the men’s group, in its own room.

Monthly

Apologetics

The questions you were told not to ask. Why do we believe this? What about that? Come with the hard ones.

Monthly

Life & community

Catholic Educators’ Collective

For teachers and everyone working in schools. How do you live your faith in a classroom, and what do you do with the parts that are hard?

Monthly, all ages

Catholic Healthcare Collective

For nurses, doctors, PSWs, techs, and anyone in care work. The moral weight of the job, and carrying it with faith.

Monthly, all ages

Couples

For dating, engaged, and married couples. A night out that’s actually about the two of you and the life you’re building.

Monthly

Singles

Not a matchmaking service. A room of people in the same season, building real friendships.

Monthly

Outreach & recreation

Street Patrol

We go out into the city with food and conversation for people who don’t get much of either. One of the most direct things we do.

Monthly

Salsa

No partner needed, no experience needed. Come learn something and stay for the fun of it.

Friday nights

Soccer

All skill levels. Turn up and play.

Weekly, Tuesdays

Basketball

Same deal. Run it back.

Weekly, Thursdays

Trips

Go somewhere that changes the year.

Mission

Open to young adults

Dominican Republic

Service, immersion, and a week that reorders how you see things.

Eurotrip

Coming 2028

Rome and central Italy. The Camino de Santiago. France.

Basically a pilgrimage without calling it a pilgrimage. Food, culture, history, sightseeing, nightlife and free time, with Mass, prayer, churches, saints and the Catholic story of each place woven in naturally.

Want the Eurotrip when it opens?

Get on the list and you’ll hear before it’s announced anywhere else.

Newsletter

Know what’s coming. No spam, just what’s on.

How to get involved

Three steps, and the first one is just turning up.

01

Come to Sycamore

Last Tuesday of the month. That’s genuinely the whole first step.

02

Go to whatever you like

One group or all of them. Something on this page probably caught your eye, so try it. Nobody is keeping count either way.

03

Bring someone

Most people come the first time because a friend dragged them. Be the friend.

The shop

Wear it out loud.

Every drop funds what happens on this page.
