Youth Ministry
Guided by Bishop Edward J. Burns’ vision and the framework of Listen, Teach, and Send, the Office of Youth, Young Adult, and Campus Ministries accompanies young people across the Diocese of Dallas in their journey of faith. We are dedicated to the work of evangelization—helping every young person encounter Jesus Christ, grow in authentic discipleship, and live as witnesses to His love in the world.
Our aim is to supplement and support all of our parishes across the Diocese with consultation, training, and excellent live events allowing individuals to take the next step in their walk with Jesus Christ.
“He said to them, ‘Go into all the world and proclaim the gospel to every creature.’”
Mark 16:15
The Dallas Catholic Youth Conferences are an opportunity for middle school (DCMC) or high school students (DCYC) across the Diocese of Dallas to gather together for one weekend to encounter Jesus. These conferences provide opportunities for youth to dive deeper into their faith through prayer (Mass, Adoration, Worship, etc), talks from national and local speakers, and experiencing the Catholic community present in Dallas.
All parishes in the Diocese of Dallas are welcomed to register a group for this weekend conference February 13-15, 2026. Registrations include hotel accommodations, resources for pre and post conference, meals during the conference, and all materials needed at the conference.
