National Conference on Catholic Youth Ministry
(for adults working with youth)
March With the Saints
December 9-12, 2010

The National Conference on Catholic Youth Ministry (NCCYM) is the largest adult conference for Catholic youth ministers in the country. It is sponsored biennially on even numbered years by the National Federation for Catholic Youth Ministry in order to help form and transform adults ministering to youth in the Catholic Church.

Join thousands of your colleagues—youth and campus ministers, catechetical leaders, scouts, clergy, religious, performers, musical artists and volunteers—for four days of inspiring keynotes, challenging workshops, dynamic prayer and worship, critical networking, extensive resources, and good-hearted entertainment.
