On Valentine’s Day weekend, more than 1,500 teens from parishes across the Diocese of Dallas filled the Frisco Convention Center for the annual Dallas Catholic Youth Conference — a three-day gathering centered on faith and community and designed to help young people encounter Christ and one another.

Full of joy and buzzing with energy, the Dallas Catholic Middle School Conference kicked off its inaugural event bright and early on Oct. 18 at John Paul II High School in Plano. The first of its kind hosted by the Diocese of Dallas, the conference invited hundreds of middle schoolers across the diocese to gather for a day of formation, praise, and community. About 650 people from 26 parishes participated.
A special Diocese of Dallas synod listening session for Young Adults is coming up on Oct. 3. The intention of the synod listening session is to hear the voices of the Church—this one particularly young adults between the ages of 21-35––who are not typically heard, in order to address their needs and invite them to join our community.
