Every year the Office of Youth Ministry sponsors RALLY as our largest outreach event! This event is a celebration
of our faith and love of the Lord. This year we are planning
for hundreds of High School youth to gather for over eight hours of music, inspirational
speakers, and Sunday Mass with Bishop Loverde. RALLY is designed to be open to any high school aged youth wanting
to attend - please welcome and invite them to participate in the life of the Catholic
Church. Invite your friends!
WE HAD OVER 50 PARISHES OF THE 68 IN OUR DIOCESE REPRESENTED in 2007 -- we would love to see even more of you there this year! |

Superchick
Superchick is living up to its name. Its first four albums have combined for 700,000 copies sold, more than seventy film, television and videogame song placements, and five No. 1 singles. But for a band inspired to empower its listeners, its new album does more than walk the talk … it rocks the talk!
Superchick, the headline band on this tour, is joined by three other 'stellar' bands... check them out below...

The three members of 321 Improv have come together to join in a ministry that attempts to glorify God in everything they do. Carl sums it up this way, “Our goal is to use comedy to spread a message of true joy that can only come from a personal relationship with Jesus Christ.” |

An incredibly gifted Christian singer before her accident, Renée has augmented her gifts to include a dynamic speaking ability that grabs her audiences. Whether performing a powerful concert or sharing her profound and victorious story that includes paralysis and a life confined to a wheelchair, those who hear Renée are uplifted and mesmerized by her angelic voice, music and messages. Most importantly, all who hear Renée are encouraged to pursue a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. |
