Franciscan LEAD is back in Halifax for the first time since 2019!

This leadership retreat happens in the week leading up to our Steubenville Atlantic youth conference and is aimed at high school students. The programming is based on the foundation that youth leadership flows from a personal relationship with Christ. During the retreat teens will be given the tools to grow closer in their relationship with Jesus along with the essentials for servant leadership and evangelization.  Get a glimpse of what LEAD is like by clicking here.
