The Diocesan Youth Conference will be held on Friday, February 9 through Sunday, February 11, 2024 at the Greater Richmond Convention Center in Richmond, Virginia.

The Diocesan Youth Conference (DYC) is an annual weekend event that gathers high school youth from Diocese of Richmond parishes in one central location. DYC is a highly energetic and engaging opportunity for our high school teenagers to gather as a larger Church community and celebrate the richness of our Catholic faith.

The theme this year is Take Courage, based primarily on two miracle stories in the Gospels: when Jesus cures Bartimaeus of his blindness in Mark 10:49 (“Take courage; get up, he is calling you.”) and when Peter walks on water in Matthew 14:27 (“Take courage, it is I; do not be afraid.”).
