Adelante
Adelante is a JSerra initiative with the goal of building community through faith formation and educational events.
Each year we offer formational and educational networking events for people of faith in Orange County. You do not need to be a JSerra student, parent, or alumnus to participate.
Why Adelante
St. Junipero Serra, who founded the California Missions, lived by the motto: Siempre Adelante, Nunca Atras, which means, "Always forward, never backward." As an independent Catholic school founded in the spirit of this great missionary saint, JSerra seeks to embody the vision of our patron.
Adelante is an initiative inspired to always be looking outward for the purpose of bringing the Gospel to as many people as possible. We aspire to continue building up our local community, support our surrounding dioceses, and welcome people of faith and goodwill who might not otherwise have the opportunity.
Why GivE
With the exception of Adelante Fest, all of our events are open to the community and complimentary. Please consider making a gift to support this initiative — no amount is too small!
