A Picture Says a Thousand Words: Steubenville Youth Conference
Every year, some 1,200 young people from the archdiocese attend one of Franciscan University of Steubenville’s famous youth conferences. This year the Office of Youth Evangelization and Discipleship worked to get as many youth groups there as possible for the conference the weekend of July 14, when Archbishop Dennis M. Schnurr was scheduled to celebrate the closing Mass. More than 600 youth from the archdiocese were present at the Mass. “Archbishop Schnurr is our shepherd,” said Brad Bursa, the office’s director. “We want to follow our shepherd.”
