Beyond The Beacon Episode 82: What it’s like to be young and Catholic now


Three young adults share their experience of being Catholic in today’s culture. Bishop Kevin J. Sweeney and Diocesan Communications Director Jai Agnish interview Michael Inguanti, David Martinez, and Matt Pana of the New Jersey chapter of Young Catholic Professionals. The organization offers a way for young workers in their 20s and 30s to go deeper into faith, life, and work. Its members seek authentic friendships, a richer sense of purpose, and personal and professional excellence.

“Above all, we’re here to help inspire modern-day saints,” YCP’s mission statement states.

Inguanti is president of YCP NJ; Martinez is Director of Marketing of YCP NJ; and Pana is Director of Evangelization of YCP NJ.
