“The Franciscan Youth/Young Adults (FYYA) of the United States is the fellowship of young people who feel called by the Holy Spirit to make, in fraternity, an experience of Christian life, in the light of the message of Francis of Assisi, deepening their vocation within the realm of the Secular Franciscan Order (OFS).

FYYA belongs to the Franciscan family as an integral part of the OFS and considers the Rule of the OFS as the inspirational document for the growth of its own Christian and Franciscan vocation, both individually and as a group.

The FYYA is open to Catholic Youth (ages 14 to 17) and Catholic Young Adults (ages 18 to 35).”
