The Buffalo-Pittsburgh Diocese of the PNCC will be hosting Convo 2012: Confirmed to Walk on Water from July 23rd-27th, 2012 at Niagara University in Niagara Falls, NY. As we hit the one year count-down to Convo 2012, keep all of the youth of the PNCC in your collective prayers.

For more information, visit the Convo website on Facebook or the Convo 2012 website.

Monday – Friday – CONVO 2010 at Monmouth University, West Long Branch, NJ.

Youth from all over our Church will be assembling this week to study, pray, worship, have fun, fellowship, probably eat and sleep (although past experiences put these two in question). Please keep all of our youth and the 190 others who will be uplifted, loved, and taught during this week.

Thanks also to all of you who had either donated money for snacks, made snacks, provided for snacks for all the participants. And, again, for, lo, these many months, thank you for your sacrifice in allowing our youth to attend this great event. God bless you all!

CONVO 2010 is nearing; 5 days on the theme Governed by God: 10 Commandments and the 2 Commandments of Love for the youth of the PNCC ages 12 to 21. Applications are available from Fr. Stan if you have not gotten yours yet, through the CONVO site, or here [pdf]. The CONVO Facebook Page has tons of additional info.

CONVO 2010 will be held July 26-30, 2010 at Monmouth University in West Long Branch, NJ, one mile from the beaches along the Atlantic shore and one hour from NYC and Philadelphia. There will be a trip to Liberty and Ellis Island as well as a beach bonfire.
