Archives Annual diocesan Youth Rally to be part of INSPIRE

June 15, 2016

By Kelly Donnelly
Diocesan director of youth ministry

On September 25, the annual diocesan Youth Rally will take place in Lake Placid.  While the Youth Rally is always an event that teens across the diocese look forward to, this year is sure to be especially exciting, as the rally will be part of INSPIRE: Called to Love, the vocations summit being held in Lake Placid.

Teens attending the rally can look forward to attending Bishop Barron’s keynote address, a performance from Full Armor Band, an interactive park, and the closing Mass.  Full Armor Band is known for its engaging performances, having played at a variety of youth events, including the Washington D.C. Youth Rally at the March for Life. 

The interactive park will consist of a variety of activities.  From adventure and leadership games (including Life Sized Foosball) to service opportunities (such as making bird houses) to artistic opportunities (such as making wrist rosaries and posing in a Bible photo booth), there will be something for everyone.

The youth rally is open to youth in grades 6-12.  Registration for the youth rally component is on the same page as the adult registration for Inspire (http://www.inspirecalledtolove.org/register.asp); there is a place on the registration form to indicate the participant is a youth.  Registration is required. If you have any questions or concerns regarding the youth rally, please contact Kelly Donnelly at kdonnelly@rcdony.org.

This event is a tremendous opportunity for teens to grow in their faith, have fun, and experience the vibrancy of the Church. 

Not only will they have a chance to meet other teens and see renowned speakers and performers, but they will be a part of a unique experience, learning about and growing in the universal call to holiness.
