Paul and Diane Young anchor down the Emmaus Journey ministry on the West Coast. They are active members of the Holy Spirit Catholic Church. They have five children and fourteen grandchildren.

Paul had 35 years experience in church ministry and has earned a Masters Degree in Theology and a Doctorate in Psychological Studies as an evangelical pastor and CEO of an international mission agency. After two of his sons became Catholic he took time to discover what was Catholicism’s attraction for them and was compelled by the truth he discovered to also become Catholic. He is known for his enthusiastic teaching and solid understanding of the Catholic faith. He and Diane bring a warmth of relationship to all that they do.

Current Update

The West Coast is a big area. As we help individuals here in the Santa Rosa area grow in their love for Christ and his Church please also pray that he would lead us to men and women who could help us spread the vision and values of Catholic evangelization and discipleship formation.

A Practical Resource We Recommend

Hiding God’s Word In Your Heart and Mind: The Catholic Topical Memory System is probably the best one-on-one or small group resource for establishing people in their faith and bringing about a substantial understanding of what it means to be a Catholic Christian. The following quote illustrates its effectiveness, “Can I ever thank you enough?!!! … the Lord has been showing up so powerfully and really speaking to my heart through the quotes and your thoughts written in The Catholic TMS - are there ever some gems in there!” It requires work but you will be glad to see the results.
