Bishop Noll student and others from all over the United States are going on a field trip on November 21-23 to Indianapolis.

  Students are invited to attend National Catholic Youth Conference (NCYC), a conference which encourages students to live their faith by showing others how fun it can be to be Catholic. At NCYC, students can go to concerts, talks, prayer, mass, presentations, and a multitude of other events.

Students were invited last spring to attend NCYC, and final registrations are in early September. Announcements have been made to the whole student body, and any grade level can attend. The conference is designed for high school students, and about 20,000-30,000 high schoolers come from all over the United States.

  “The National Catholic Youth Conference is an exciting, biennial three-day experience of prayer, community, and empowerment for Catholic teenagers and their adult chaperones,” claims the NCYC website.

For those students that have never been before the experience is far more than what you would expect from a Catholic function. You not only learn about God, but you learn to get close to your peers. Religion can be boring sometimes, but going to this conference will cause students to look at their religion differently, because they take out the hard work and make it fun.

“Teens and their group leaders enjoy speakers, workshops, live music, rousing large sessions, a huge closing liturgy, exploring faith in a supportive environment,” says the website.
