About us

Encuentros Juveniles is a Youth Movement of the Archdiocese of Miami, dedicated to the evangelization of the youth. Started in 1973, to promote the spiritual welfare of the Hispanic youth, Encuentros now caters to the spirituality of any young Catholic.

We call out to all the young persons in the Archdiocese of Miami from the ages of 14 to 25. When you feel that you have reached a point where you must find Christ, or want to deepen your relationship with Him, we invite you to our movement.

We are called to build the Civilization of Love. "How?," you may ask yourselves, by the evangelization of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. We attend weekly formation meetings, monthly service projects, and retreats every few months - all geared towards creating Christian leaders for our workforce, schools, families, parishes, and communities. We are not a youth group, but a YOUTH MOVEMENT.

Come and join us!
