Groups & Teams

Frassati Groups 

Our groups usually have 8-20 people and are led by an individual person, centered on a given topic (like discipleship, or bible study), and tend to meet either on Mondays, Tuesdays, or Wednesdays. 

  • If you're looking to grow in your faith within a small, supportive community, our Frassati Young Adults Discipleship Groups are the perfect place! These groups, typically made up of 5-15 people, provide a nurturing environment for learning, sharing, and spiritual growth. We offer both men's and women's groups, as well as some mixed groups.

    Each gathering includes prayer, a lesson or reading, discussion, and sharing, all led by a small group leader. The groups are open to young adults aged 21-35 in the Seattle area and run for approximately 9 months, from fall through June. Meeting locations vary and may include Blessed Sacrament, UW Newman, a member's home, or another spot.

    Once matched with a group, you’ll have the chance to meet your small group leader—perhaps over coffee—to get to know each other and ensure it’s a good fit before attending your first group meeting. We encourage you to make your small group a priority for the year, as regular participation is essential for both your personal growth and the group's spiritual journey.

  • Beloved Small Group

    Beloved is a small group for Catholics who are queer/are experiencing same-sex attraction or gender dysphoria. We are seeking freedom in Christ through our God-given identities and the teachings of the Church. We hope that Beloved is a space where you can find rest, truth, and love.

    In this small group, we value the privacy of our members so please provide your contact info by CLICKING HERE and a small group leader will reach out to you soon!

  • Come to read and discuss documents, letters, and encyclicals of the popes with a lively group of individuals. Don’t worry, we don’t take ourselves too seriously. We usually meet Monday evenings for a couple of hours. This is not open to drop-ins; first email Fr. Marcin, who leads the event. Contact him here: frmarcin@uwnewman.org.

  • New participants and beginner players welcome! We meet once a month and there is no expectation to play regularly. If you would like to join, please check the Frassati Facebook page for the next posted session.

  • Join us for our monthly Frassati Young Adult Small Group Rosary Gathering! We meet at 7pm in the beautiful UW Newman Chapel to come together in prayer and reflection as we pray the rosary. Afterward, enjoy delightful refreshments and connect with fellow attendees. Stay updated on our upcoming gatherings by visiting our Facebook events page. Don't miss out on this wonderful opportunity to nurture your faith and build community!

  • Come for fellowship and fun at our monthly movie night, hosted at the UW Newman Center. Join us for pizza at 6 pm, followed by watching a film around 7 pm. An assortment of movies will be provided, and those in attendance will vote to decide.

  • Contact us directly at frassati@uwnewman.org to make sure on the days and times we meet, but usually, we meet at 6:15 pm on Wednesdays and Fridays, and run between 4.5-5.5 miles, at a pace of around 9-10min per mile.

  • We gather around once a month on Saturday mornings to clean up our local Catholic cemetery. We do some light gardening (raking, turning over flower beds, whatever they need), so wear clothes you don't mind getting dirty and bring your own gloves/small hand tools if possible. Afterward, we'll spend a few minutes praying for the deceased laid to rest in the cemetery and our own loved ones. To join, contact seattlefrassati@gmail.com.
