What can I expect the Conference to be like? Where will we be Sleeping?
On Friday June 10th, we will have mass at 6 AM in the church and then leave for Steubenville, Ohio after that. We will load up on a charter bus and make the six hour trip with a stop for food and restroom along the way. We will arrive at the campus of Franciscan University and start the conference! The guys will be staying in the campus apartments which will not have air conditioning. The girls will be in the dorms and might have air conditioning. Not everyone will have a bed, so bring either a mat or a sleeping bag to sleep on. Some people bring a small fan but it actually gets pretty cool at night there so it might not be needed. The conference schedule will consist of different talks on the faith, confession, adoration, and of course Mass! Oh and they always have great music too! We will return to Most Holy Trinity on Sunday June 12th around 7 or 8 PM.

Are there any meetings that I need to attend before the trip?
Yes - If it's your first time going to Steubenville! We have a meeting for first timers scheduled for Sunday, May 29th at 6 PM in back of the youth center. There we will go over the basics of what to expect from the conference, Steubenville's Covid Policy, and answer any questions that you have. We'll also have the final amount due for each student available at this meeting.
