Common Questions:
Who Serves on Reach Teams? - Young adults who serve come from various backgrounds.  It could be youth ministry, economics, engineering, serving after college graduation, taking a break from college, or sometimes serving before college begins.
 
What about money? - It takes about $9,300.00 to keep a Reach Member going for the year.  Each Team Member is only expected to raise $4250.00 in sponsorship funds. Sponsorship raised helps provide for team member food, lodging, car insurance, travel and training and monthly stipend.  People see clearly the value in investing faith in our young people.  Team Members’ home parishes/communities are always both generous and proud to support them.
 
What’s it like each day on a Reach Team? - Morning Mass, personal prayer, team prayer, prepping and honing ministry skills, driving, sight seeing, spending time w/ host families, meeting amazing Catholic people all over the country, and of course, leading weekly youth & young adult ministry events.
