Franciscan LEAD: Franciscan LEAD is a leadership program for teens that are ready to take their discipleship to the next level and to be formed into evangelizing leaders in their communities. Students who register for LEAD will travel to Steubenville on Monday, July 16th and will join the rest of our group when we arrive on Friday, July 20th. LEAD is open to current sophomores thru seniors who have already attended at least one regular conference. The cost of LEAD is an additional $370.00 beyond the regular conference fee but we plan to cover this for those who attend. Those who want to attend LEAD should indicate in the sign up and will be given further instructions.

Chaperones: Chaperoning a trip to Steubenville is different than a class trip or a field trip. We typically select our chaperones from among those who already are working with our teens in some faith-related aspect. Generally this means The WELL or 4D Confirmation sessions and some of the youth outreach taking place at St. Joe's in Pewamo. The reasons for this is that on a given conference weekend, opportunities and situations always arise where some of our teens are powerfully impacted by the Holy Spirit and need spiritual counsel, prayer and faith related questions answered. It also helps if our chaperones are familiar to our teens when these situations arise.

Registration: We have 112 total spots available. 10-12 of those will be for chaperones, leaving 100 or so spots for our teens.  All registration information for both the weekend conference and LEAD can be found on the parish website as well as in paper form in the back of church. A $100.00 non-refundable deposit will be required upon registration. As always, priority is given to upperclassmen first in the event that we have more than 100 teens register. Registration is due no later than Friday, April 13th. After April, 13th any remaining spots will be filled on a first come/first serve basis regardless off grade seniority. The only situation where a deposit will be refunded is if we have to turn underclassmen away due to high upperclassmen registration volume.  If a teen registers and then backs out for any reason, their spot will be opened up to other interested teens.  Please call Jordan at the parish office with any questions.
