“It was amazing to see 23,000 people in one arena, worshipping, praying, all together.” ~former Diocese of Gary NCYC participant
“It was life-changing. It was amazing to see the change in our young people in such a short time, (and their) desire to share their faith more openly. They know it’s OK to believe what they believe in and to express that with other people.” ~former Diocese of Gary NCYC adult group leader
