GYP Convention - Defending the Faith without Offending It (Oct. 7-10)

It’s time again for the annual Diocese of Los Angeles and Hawaii Graduates and Young Professionals Convention! Graduate students and young professionals from California and the rest of the United States come together to grow in knowledge, spirituality, and fellowship. This year we have some very important speakers coming to discuss with us how to defend our faith without offending our faith. With persecution of the church growing all over the world and where our own faith is tested daily, this topic cannot come at a more pertinent time. Join us as we learn what it means to carry our cross, to boldly stand up for our faith, and to be brave and strong without forgetting about love. We look forward to seeing you!
