Year of Youth Fest | Opening Mass with Bishop O'Connell
From the Director of Youth and Young Adult Ministries:
"Through the inspiration of the Holy Spirit and the vision of Bishop O'Connell, we are very excited to initiate a yearlong celebration of young Catholics in the Diocese called the "Year of Youth." Special Events will be held for youth and young adults throughout the year led by the Diocese, but I am most excited to see how our parishes and schools will use this opportunity to celebrate and empower the gifts of young people in new ways. No matter how successful your community may or may not be at engaging young people, I hope this Year of Youth will be an inspiration to start something new and/or take efforts to the next level."
