November 2013

National Catholic Youth Conference

Deepen the Catholic faith and identity of ALL your youth.

In a study of youth conduced during the 2011 NCYC, participants reported their top reasons for attending NCYC:

To celebrate their Catholic faith with other young people (60%).
To meet other Catholic young people (50%).
To learn more about their Catholic faith (49%).

They also revealed:

Those youth for whom faith has long been important are most interested in deepening their understanding of faith;
Those whose faith is not yet as important express the most interest in experiences that provide connections with others.

Don't miss out on the formative opportunities of NCYC!
