From the Steubenville Conferences Team

Dear Friend, 

We are so glad you chose to join us for a Steubenville Conference this summer! 

Since the very first priests’ conference at Franciscan University in 1975, the Steubenville Conferences have grown to provide spiritual renewal each year to tens of thousands of high school youth, young adults, catechists, religious educators, priests, deacons, seminarians, religious men and women, and laity. 

This summer alone, we are offering four adult and four youth conferences on Franciscan University’s campus, and 13 regional youth conferences across North America. The University continues to expand its outreach.  

On May 17, 2022, Franciscan Center for Evangelization & Renewal became the new location for the Catechetical Institute, the Catechetical Review, the School of Spiritual Direction, and Steubenville Conferences. The motto of Franciscan Center is, Afire with the Spirit to enkindle, accompany and transform. We are always led by the Holy Spirit in every outreach initiative. We endeavor to create the best environment to encounter Christ and nurture growth and accompaniment for each person on their faith journey. We also form and equip joyful disciples to share the Good News of Jesus Christ! 

We hope your time with us draws you closer to Jesus and to each other in community. Know that you are always in our prayers—during the conference and beyond! Thank you again for joining us.
