June 2022
Recognizing the continued impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and the current economic challenges on our Catholic families, the Office of Religious Education, in consultation with Archbishop José H. Gomez, has made the difficult decision to postpone the 2022 City of Saints Teen Conference.
City of Saints gathers young people in high school from across all 5 regions of the Archdiocese for a unique experience to embrace the culture and diversity that is found in our Archdiocese. The conference exists to help young people express their sainthood and has done so successfully since 2015, gathering thousands of young people over these 7 years. While we hoped to continue offering this wonderful encounter this year in its “normal” 3-day 2-night experience at UCLA, we cannot ignore the financial realities of our parish communities and families. We look forward in hope for our next gathering of youth for the City of Saints Teen Conference!
Thank you to all the volunteers, speakers, musicians, committee members and participants who have been part of the conference experience. Your hard work and time have been an important part of the success of the event.
Should you have further questions, please contact Jenny Jackson, Coordinator of Youth Ministry Events.
