The Vietnamese Eucharistic Youth Movement is a non-profit organization, under the leadership of the Catholic Church. Its aim is to teach youths to be virtuous people and good Christians. It also offers apostolate services for the youth. Throughout its years of service, the Movement has kept pace with social and cultural changes of the day in an attempt to reach out to the youth of all times.

The Eucharistic Youth Movement has two general purposes:

1. To educate and to train youths in becoming a better person as well as an excellent Christian.

2. To organize and to guide all youths in spreading the Good News of the Gospel and to actively be involved in working for the good of society through charitable services and helping others.

Mien Trung is fully united in VEYM's purpose and mission. Our first chapters were formed in the early 1980s. Since then, we have grown to 18 Chapters and over 2500 members throughout the Midwest. Our Chaplains, Assistant Chaplains, and Youth Leaders continue working tirelessly to form our youths.
