IGNITE YOUR TORCH is a Catholic Youth conference in the spirit of World Youth Days, providing an opportunity for young people to discover how they can follow Jesus by deepening their faith. It is an opportunity to make new friendships in Christ, to receive the sacraments, to meet and talk to young priests and religious, and to worship, pray, learn, and recreate together. IGNITE YOUR TORCH is Eucharistically-centered, devoted to our Blessed Mother, and catechetical in nature, and teaches youth practical ways to build up the culture of life.
