  • For those who were interested in our post Thanksgiving Saint Raphael Meet-Up in Virginia but could not make it...

    A nephew of Father Ahern and some other people we know are hosting another chance for young traditional adults to meet up in Ohio in January.

  • Kudos to those making these events available.  There’s a real dearth of opportunities for many young adult trads to meet one another to socialize and possibly to find marriage partners.  Parents and older adults need to step in unlike in decades past where there were large numbers of Catholics in healthy, thriving parishes with schools, monasteries, convents, fraternities, etc.   
    In my experience, the majority of traditional Catholic families make long drives to and from Mass, often not every Sunday, and even those fortunate to have weekly Mass go to small chapels where there are few young adults who only see one another briefly for coffee and donuts afterwards.  Or else they are directly related to the other young adults in attendance. It’s nice to visit your cousins, but there are no courtship possibilities!  
    Unless a young person is called to the religious life, he is not going to remain at home or live alone indefinitely.  Very few people are cut out for the single life, much less called to it by God.  The result is that the youth are going to have friends and most will get married, and not to a traditional Catholic. 
    I think Catholic parents should seriously consider some form of arranged marriages, given the situation in the Church and the world.

    I agree with everything you have said here.  My experiences in the traditional movement have been very similar.  I remember thinking back when I was single that it would have been so much easier if my parents were traditional and could have trusted them to help provide an arranged marriage for me.  😅

    I was so glad when I saw that other people are picking up on the idea and starting their own Young Adult Group Meet-Ups.  Hopefully the idea will keep spreading and eventually there will be several of them throughout the different portions of the U.S. 🙏😇

    I talked to one of the organizers.  They ended up having more people sign up than they planned on.  So, they had to find a place with bigger accomodations.  Once the deadline is past and they know for sure how many people are coming, they plan to finalize all the plans and then send out an email with the official schedule to everyone.

    That being said, if you need any specific questions answered before that, you can email them on their site and they should get back to you.  😇

  • Are these meeting ups only for those looking for a marriage partner? Can folks go hoping to make new friends?

    Our Saint Raphael Meet-Up it is definitely open to people who aren't looking for marriage partners and who are interested in coming only to make new solid traditional Catholic friends. The primary purpose of our events is to help the younger generation find a good support group to help them to keep the Faith.  So, that definitely includes finding good solid friends along with those who want to find a traditional Catholic spouse.

    I can't say exactly what the Winter in Cincy Meetup has in mind as we aren't organizers for it.  However, as far as I am aware of, you don't have to commit to saying that you are looking for a spouse to go.  So, I am guessing that you would be most welcome there as well!  😇
