Youth and Young Adults Events

 

DYC 2016: EARLY BIRD REGISTRATION ENDS APRIL 1!

Registration for the 2016 DYC: The Ascent is now open for all those in grades 7-12! You can register online at www.dycpgdiocese.eventbrite.ca. It is $40 before APRIL 1 and $60 after April 1. The Diocesan Youth Conference is a packed weekend adventure filled with dynamic talks, workshops, games, adoration, praise and worship, and a coffeehouse featuring artists from across our diocese as part of an evening celebration. This year, our theme is ‘The Ascent’. The Christian journey often feels like a tough climb, but we hope young people will leave ready to take on every mountain. With the help of Face2Face Ministries, we will unpack that which is most central and basic to the Catholic Christian faith.
