2nd Sunday · After Qurbana
Young adults rooted in faith, building community, and growing together in service — the Yuvajana Sakhyam of the Mar Thoma Church of New Jersey.
Young Adults Fellowship
Yuvajana Sakhyam — literally "Young Friends" or "Youth Fellowship" — is the young adults ministry of the Mar Thoma Church of New Jersey. Founded in the parish in 2000, YS brings together young men and women for Bible study, prayer, fellowship, and service.
YS meets every 2nd Sunday of the month after the Service. Meetings blend spiritual formation with social engagement — guest speakers, service projects, and community events that deepen faith and friendship among young adults in the parish.
Deep engagement with Scripture and committed prayer life at the heart of every meeting.
Hands-on outreach and service projects that put faith into action in New Jersey.
Regional and diocesan YS conventions connecting our young adults to the wider Mar Thoma family.
