The Alabama humidity showed up. So did 25 awesome young Catholic athletes who spent their Saturday morning tearing up the pickleball courts City Walk Bham 🏓☀️🕶️

Everyone rallied. No one got pickled. Just built community one dink at a time.

Sweaty? Yes. Worth it? Absolutely.

The only thing hotter than the Magic City sun was the competition.

Congratulations to Colin Moore and Jess :) for claiming victory after 5 intense rounds!

And thanks to everyone who came out and made it such a fun morning. We’ll see you at the next YCP Birmingham event!

What a night!!

60 young Catholic professionals gathered at Sloss Furnace for an evening of authentic conversation, practical wisdom, and genuine community.
A huge thank you to our incredible panelists-Fr. Mitch Pacwa, Laura Johnson, Anthony Zanella, and Debbie Cowden-for sharing not only their professional expertise, but also their hearts. The discussion was insightful, challenging, hilarious, and deeply encouraging.

Some of our favorite takeaways:

❤️Above all, love the people you work with.

🏛️ Prudence isn’t passive-it’s the virtue of knowing the
right thing to do, at the right time, in the right way.
Sometimes that means exercising restraint. Sometimes it means having the courage to engage a difficult conversation.

🤝When you don’t get the credit, remember the mission is bigger than you. And when a relationship has been strained, humility often sounds like: “Help me understand... where did I go wrong?”

Most of all, thank you to everyone who came. The energy in the room, the thoughtful questions, the laughter, and the conversations that continued long after the panel ended reminded us why YCP Birmingham exists.

We’re grateful for this community and can’t wait to see you at the next one!!

Is ambition a virtue?

Tuesday night at the Vulcan, Steven Mezrano gave us a clear answer:

Yes — if it’s properly directed.

The real question isn’t whether you’re ambitious…
It’s who you’re doing it for.

Are you seeking to glorify God — or yourself?

Steven shared a hard-earned realization:

You can win the world… and still lose —
if it costs you your marriage or your family.

The antidote?

• Put the phone away and be fully present with your family
• Stay committed to the nightly family rosary - even when you don’t feel like it
• Be willing to sacrifice even good things (yes, even Alabama football) for what matters most

Because misdirected ambition can leave you feeling that no win, no matter how many zeros are behind it, is enough.

And before you know it, you’re a slave to success.

But rightly ordered ambition?

It leads to freedom.

As powerful as the talk was, the Q&A might have been even better —
honest questions, candid answers, and a room that didn’t want it to end.

And afterward — conversation, connection, and community…
under the patio lights overlooking the Magic City.

—

And we’re just getting started.

At the end of the night, we teased our next event — an executive panel discussion:

“Devil in the Workplace: The Virtue of Prudence When the Office Gets Heated.”

Judging by the reaction in the room… this is one you won’t want to miss.

Stay tuned.
