What is DYC?
The Diocesan Youth Conference (DYC) is our yearly gathering for ALL teens
8 - 12th grades of the Diocese of Trenton. It is an opportunity to connect with other young Catholics beyond your parish or school and can encounter Jesus through dynamic presentations, music, workshops and more!
Unfortunately, after much consideration, DYC 2022 will be all virtual. We are disappointed and wish it did not have to be this way but given the current COVID-19 situation in our state this is the safest option for our young people.
Last year, our virtual 2021 DYC was a success!—over 1,000 people joined us LIVE for a day filled with virtual games, awesome music and speaker and live interactions! Join us this year as we continue the fun!
DYC 2022 will be LIVE via YouTube on
Saturday, January 29th from 11am-12pm
We all fill our lives with many things… some are good and healthy... some can be harmful or drag us down… but none of them alone can truly fulfill us. At DYC 2022, we will explore what it means to be loved by God and how His love is the only thing that will allow us to be truly "FULFILLED"!
