Conferences & Events

Roller Coasters. Funnel Cake. A sound caught somewhere between a laugh and a scream. In 2020, the Road to Emmaus might look a little different, but the purpose is still the same: walk with them. The Inspiration events provide you an opportunity to hangout, have fun, and walk with your high school youth. The casual and inviting theme park atmosphere paired with a powerful Gospel-centered event sets the stage for teenagers to encounter Jesus in a powerful way.

Vision - A Virtual Life Teen Retreat

Realizing the limits of many social and safety guidelines, we know one area that might be affected is retreat ministry. Though the typical retreat experience might not be possible, we still believe it’s worth the effort to create an opportunity for teens to encounter Jesus. We want to partner with you to create a moment of encounter for your teens through this virtual retreat.

The Frontier

A Virtual Conference for Navigating New Roads in Youth Ministry

Without warning, youth ministry has been pushed beyond the boundaries of previous experience.

We’re stepping into the unknown and we’re inviting you to join us through a live, two-day, virtual training conference. At this newly crafted event, you can expect practical training on how to navigate the new reality of youth ministry, meaningful prayer experiences, interactive games, intentional connection points, and more.

Catholic Youth Ministry Convention

Scottsdale, AZ

Life Teen’s Catholic Youth Ministry Convention has become America’s premier event for everyone involved in parish youth ministry. Why? Maybe it’s because we are different. We believe in practical, comprehensive youth ministry training. But we don’t think that’s enough. That’s why we incorporate elements of a spiritual retreat into the training convention. Because youth ministry isn’t about what you know, it’s Who you know.
