Join us for the first ever Discipleship Week in the Diocese of Austin!

Discipleship Week is an event facilitated by NET Ministries that provides a unique opportunity for high school students to dive deeper into their faith. D-Week is a four-day retreat experience (Monday-Thursday) full of prayer, engaging talks, small group time, music, games and more. D-Week is lead by a dynamic team of NET team members with a passion for sharing the faith with high school students. At the heart of every Discipleship Week is a powerful encounter with Jesus through prayer and fellowship.

BELONG
“See what love the Father has bestowed on us, that we may be called children of God.” -1 John 3:1
At the core of our being is a desire for meaningful connection and authentic relationship. We long to love and be loved, but how often do we just feel lonely?
As we search for ways to escape these feelings of isolation, there comes a small, quiet whisper that pierces through to the depths of our heart: “You are never alone, because you are Mine.”

This summer, over 50,000 Catholic teens across North America will attend one of 24 Steubenville Youth Conferences to encounter the God who calls us His sons and daughters. Come and experience His overwhelming love for you. You belong here.

To register (which is due by May 17th), email AJ Barrows. Spots are not fully reserved until AJ receives payment. Spots are limited so email and get payment in quickly!
