Statement of Archbishop Nelson J. Pérez Regarding Safety As Mass Obligation Resumes

“Ensuring the health and welfare of those entrusted to the pastoral and temporal care of our Church, especially as we navigate a global pandemic, is a paramount priority as the Archbishop of Philadelphia. During this time of acute hardship and struggle, I have worked in conjunction with the Catholic Bishops of Pennsylvania and the senior administration of the Archdiocese of Philadelphia to implement best practices intended to mitigate the spread of COVID-19 and protect those most vulnerable.

Archbishop Pérez has approved the establishment of a Young Catholic Professionals (YCP) chapter in Philadelphia.

YCP is a national organization that brings together young Catholic professionals in a communal atmosphere of encouragement at all stages of their faith journeys. YCP equips them with the tools to live their Catholic faith through their daily work in the broader world for the glory of God. Currently, YCP has 27 chapters across the country, with four others currently planned for establishment.

On August 21, 2021, YCP will hold its inaugural event at the National Shrine of Saint John Neumann to celebrate the establishment of the YCP Philadelphia chapter. Young Catholic professionals from across the five-county Archdiocese are invited to attend the free event that begin with Mass celebrated by Archbishop Pérez at 6:00 p.m. in the Upper Church. A social event will be held immediately at the Saint John Neumann Center following the conclusion of Mass where attendees can gather and network. YCP founder, Jennifer Baugh, will be a special guest at the event.

Those interested in attending can register through a dedicated link by visiting ycpphiladelphia.org
