The focus of this paper is the participation of Catholic Youth (OMK) in church life which has an impact on the growth of young people's faith as a form of actual ministry transformation. Young Catholics are a group of young people who are growing in various aspects of personality, have a reformer spirit, and have faith in God the Father through Jesus Christ under the guidance of the Holy Spirit. The successor and future of the Church is in young people. This research uses qualitative methods with interview techniques and literature studies. This research was conducted on October 11-18, 2023, with 7 respondents who were active in participating in Catholic Youth activities in the St. Joseph Paulundu Ward. The results showed that 7 respondents (100%) were able to explain and express the activities of Catholic Youth and 5 respondents (71.4%) knew the meaning of faith that developed as a form of ministry transformation in church life. Regarding the influence of Catholic Youth activities on faith growth in St. Joseph Paulundu Ward, 6 respondents (85.7%) found that Catholic Youth activities had an impact on self-transformation change in the form of service to each other and 1 respondent (14.3%) had not found the impact of Catholic Youth activities for self-transformation.
