Youth 2000

We are pleased to announce that the 29th Annual Retreat will take place March 13-15, 2026 at Brescia University.

YOUTH 2000 responds to the U.S. Bishops’ directives as stated in “Renewing the Vision,” to draw young people into a relationship with Jesus Christ and to encourage young people to become active in their parishes and in the programs in their diocese. 

It is a weekend experience that includes talks, music, the celebration of the Mass, fellowship, and panel discussions.  There has been an overwhelmingly positive response from young people and adults who have attended a YOUTH 2000 Retreat.
