Need a reason to go?  Just listen to what some other teens said about their experience...

 

“This conference was AMAZING! It changed my life. The priests were awesome along with all of the leaders and entertainment. I especially enjoyed Eucharistic Adoration!

 It was so powerful and moving.”

 “The energy of all the teens was crazy awesome and inspiring. The speakers were funny and knowledgeable. The love of Christ and the presence of the Holy Spirit was so evident there.”

“I’ve never felt so close to God in my entire life! The music... was so fun to dance to and got you to think and really connect with God!”

“I had an amazing experience with God and he completely changed my outlook on how I was living my life. I think adoration on Saturday night is the most beautiful and probably intense thing I have ever experienced. – I thought everything was amazing!! Being able to sing praises to Jesus with 2000 people was the best part!”
