For the first time ever, a pope will engage directly with young people at the National Catholic Youth Conference (NCYC)—and for Pope Leo XIV, this will be his first-ever digital dialogue with young people in the United States.
NFCYM is excited to announce a comprehensive digital experience to help you prepare for the event.

By registering for the Digital Experience, you’ll receive an invitation to the pre-event gathering on November 11 at 9:00 pm ET | 6:00 pm PT, featuring special guests, prizes, exclusive content, and behind-the-scenes stories.
Detailed instructions for accessing the livestream, ensuring you have a front-row seat. Post-event resources to bring the Pope’s message into your home, parish, or classroom.

Registration is free and open to everyone. Participants will also be entered to win passes to 2026 NCYC, a limited-edition NCYC hat like Pope Leo’s, and more!

🎄 15 Years of Feeding Hope! 🎄

What started as a small idea at Blessed Sacrament 15 years ago has grown into something truly beautiful — our Annual Holiday Food Bag Program!

Never heard of it? Here’s the heart of it: we provide grocery bags filled with food for local school kids who might otherwise go without during Christmas break.

We partner with Hy-Vee for the food and North Star Community Services for packaging — and this year, the need is greater than ever. Our goal? 700 bags! Each one costs just $20 to fill.

✨ You can make a difference — sponsor one bag, two bags, or as many as your heart wants!

💬 And help us spread the word by sharing this post with your family and friends.
