The Archdiocese of Mobile’s Generations of Faith – Endowing Our Future with Hope Campaign, initiated in 2019, will fund perpetual endowments for, among other purposes, activities that initiate and enhance youth ministry programs for middle and high school students throughout the Archdiocese of Mobile. As soon as funds are collected and available, pastors, youth ministers, counselors, teachers, volunteers, etc. will be able to apply for grants to best serve their various youth ministry programs.
