Diocesan Youth Council

The vision for the DYC is centered on section #47 of Pope John Paul II’s Post Apostolic Exhortation, Ecclesia in America.  In this document, St. John Paul II stated that, “young people are a great force in society and for evangelization” and that the “formation process for young people must be constant and active, capable of helping them find their place in the Church and in the world.”  The Holy Father further reminded us that all “young Christians, trained to have a mature missionary consciousness, must become apostles to their contemporaries.”
