The Melkite Association of Young Adults (M.A.Y.A.): It is an organization of Melkite Catholics ages 18 – 26 under the Melkite Greek Catholic Church in the United States and the patronage of our Bishop, the Most Reverend Nicholas Samra, Eparch of Newton, which exists to help ourselves and one another strengthen our relationship with God. In order to attend the annual National M.A.Y.A. Retreat, one must be at least one year out of high school in order to be eligible. Those who are 18 years old and have "graduated" from the National Association of Melkite Youth (N.A.M.Y), are welcomed and encouraged to begin participating in local and regional M.A.Y.A. events that take place throughout the year.

REMEMBER: The young adults today are the church of tomorrow.
