The Young Adults Program is an opportunity for Catholic young adults to foster devotion to Jesus through His mother, Mary, and the Miraculous Medal. It also provides young adults with opportunities to develop an active participation in the sacramental life of the Catholic Church. Through prayer, formation, fellowship, and meaningful encounters with the Eucharist, the program seeks to inspire young adults to embrace, celebrate, and return to the Catholic faith. Beyond Sunday also provides opportunities to live out the Gospel through compassionate service to the poor, marginalized, and vulnerable members of the community.

Meet Sr. Pat!

Sr. Patricia Evanick, D.C. joined the Central Association of the Miraculous Medal to lead the Beyond Sunday Young Adults progam. She joins us from St. John’s University in Queens, NY, where she served as Campus Minister for Faith Formation and Leadership on campus.

Sr. Evanick recently reflected on how she came to truly know God through caring for others. “I always felt alive doing service,” she said. Sr. Evanick was active in service from an early age, especially during her college years at Neumann University in Easton,
PA. “That was when I began thinking I was called to this life—through the work.”

Sr. Evanick entered the Daughters of Charity in 1989. “Since then, I have grown in my faith and in my love for God through my
vow of service. When students ask me my story, I tell them I really came to know God through that love of helping others.”
