WHO SHOULD COME: Adults in Catholic Youth Ministry. Whether you are a priest, youth minister, DRE, core member, campus minister, or an interested parent, we are ready to serve and train you this year at Life Teen’s 2025 Catholic Youth Ministry Convention.

GET INSPIRED: Whether you are new to ministry, or looking for the best practices to continue your ministry, this event is designed for you. Expect incredible keynotes from the best Catholic speakers and artists, practical breakout sessions, and a foundation in the sacraments to renew your ministry.

SCALABLE, CUSTOMIZABLE RESOURCES: A core mission of Life Teen is to create resources that are scalable and customizable to your parish, to help decrease your administrative planning. Focus your time and energy on what matters most- the day-to-day ministry within the lives of teenagers.

COMMUNITY SUPPORT: Supporting parishes means supporting your needs and struggles with the hope of creating solutions, sharing inspiration, and celebrating this common mission.

SPIRITUAL RENEWAL: Step away into the natural beauty of Phoenix, Arizona for physical and spiritual renewal. Join others on the same mission and walk away with new connections, ideas, and spiritual renewal. In addition to practical, comprehensive training, you’ll experience community and personal spiritual renewal. Make connections with other from your area, network with those in similar situations, and learn from some of the best youth leaders around.

Enhance your own relationship with God through Daily Mass, Eucharistic Adoration, Reconciliation, Praise and Worship, and time with prayer. You’ll leave knowing you’re not alone but part of a greater community with a God who knows you, sees you, and loves you.

LOCATION: The Arizona Grand Resort offers suite-style accommodations, luxurious amenities, a seven-acre water park, and is only a 10-minute drive from Phoenix Sky Harbor Airport.
