Youth Conference

What is the Diocesan Youth Conference?
The Diocese Youth Conference (formerly known as the Diocesan Youth Convention) is an awesome weekend event held each summer to gather high school youth from all 152 parishes located in the Diocese of Richmond to one central location. The Conference is a highly energetic, engaging, and awesome opportunity for our high school teenagers to gather as a larger Church community and celebrate the amazing richness of our Catholic Christian faith.

Who should attend the Diocesan Youth Conference?
The Conference is open to all rising 9th graders through graduating 12th graders.

Where and when is the Diocesan Youth Conference?
The Diocesan Youth Conference will be held on Friday, July 24 through Sunday, July 26, 2009 at the College of William and Mary in Williamsburg, Virginia. For many years the Convention had been held at Lynchburg College, but due to an anticipated rise in attendance, the venue has been changed to the College of William and Mary to accommodate larger numbers.

Now what?
Conference registration wil open in early June. The cost of the weekend is $145, of which Blessed Sacrament typically pays half. If you are interested in attending, please let Rabia know by emailing her at rlieber[at]bsccva[dot]com.
