National Catholic Youth Conference NCYC

The diocese will organize groups again when NCYC returns to Indianapolis in 2025.

There is an NCYC in Long Beach California in 2024 that group can attend if they wish to organize it themselves 

The program includes keynote presentations, prayer, workshops, Mass, and opportunities to participate in reconciliation and adoration of the Blessed Sacrament, as well as recreational activities, concerts, and exhibits. A key component of NCYC is the thematic park which is a blend of traditional exhibit booths with interactive areas featuring service projects, games, recreation, live musical performances, arts, and sports. Our diocese hopes to gather together at least twice during the conference, once for mass and another time for a meal. More information to come!

Individual parishes attend NCYC through their dioceses. The Diocese collects all registration forms and payments and submits them to NFCYM.  The Diocese will also arrange all transportation, lodging, and registration needs for the event.

In 2023 our diocese hopes to provide a few opportunities for our diocese to gather. 

Register by March 15, 2023: $650 per person. This covers transportation, lodging, conference registration, and Diocesan t-shirts, traders, continental breakfast and at least one meal. If price is less than expected we will provide more meals.

• • Non-refundable deposit of $250, per person is due upon registration. Send one check per parish group.  

We will post this information as soon as it becomes available to our office.

The diocese will arrange for coach bus transportation to and from Indianapolis.  Buses will pick up groups at designated pick-up locations in the north, central, and southern part of the diocese as needed.  We will depart very early on Thursday morning and travel approximately 6-7 hours directly to our hotel.  We will depart Sunday morning and return to your drop-off location by Sunday afternoon.  A detailed travel itinerary will be provided as the trip approaches.
