When I ask many of my peers who are still practicing the faith, "why?" I have heard over and over again:

"I went to a Steubenville Conference and my faith life has never been the same."

“I thought it was one of the most moving things that I could have experienced, it was truly a life-changing event. The Steubenville Conference has helped me grow closer to God in countless different ways. I got to meet so many new people, share freely and have deep conversations with others my age that share the same faith. I was also able to experience Jesus in Eucharistic Adoration like I never have before; it was truly a moving and standout moment of not only my journey to get closer to God but in my everyday life.”
