Discernment Begins Here
Young adults come from across the country to devote nine months of their lives to serving others. We believe every NET Missionary is needed in our mission to encounter young Catholics.
Are you one of the few?

Step 1
Fill Out Your Application
We know that there can be a lot of unknowns in this process, which is why one of our recruiters will reach out to connect with you. We are here to help walk you through the steps & answer any questions you may have.

Step 2
Register for a Discernment Weekend
We have weekends in-person at the NET Center in West St. Paul or hosted online if you’re unable to join us in-person. More information on Discernment Weekends can be found here.
Friday includes a 30-45 min interview with NET Staff. Saturday is an all-day event where you will learn more about the mission of NET, what it practically looks like to be a NET Missionary, large and small group discussion, times of prayer, and more.

Step 3
Sign Your Contract
Once you’ve submitted an application and attended a Discernment Weekend, you’ll hear back from our staff in about a week regarding your acceptance.
We hope you have the opportunity to see if the Lord is calling you to serve with NET Ministries through this intentional process.
If so, then as soon as you sign your contract…
Welcome to the 2024-2025 NET Missionary Year!
