Location: John Carroll University
The CLE 2:16 Diocesan Youth Conference takes place on Saturday, January 9, 2027, At John Carroll University. Hosted by the Catholic Diocese of Cleveland. The day-long event invites high school students to gather for fellowship and faith.
Event Description:
CLE 2:16 is a day-long event for high school teens to gather in fellowship as the young Church, sponsored by the Office of Youth Ministry. Exploring Mark 2:16, CLE 2:16 will dive into the desire we share to be intimately known, seen, & loved, and where the Lord meets us with His personal invitation to the table of fellowship, and the hope that comes with knowing there is always a seat for us at His Table.
Tickets can ONLY be purchased by youth ministers, campus ministers, or parish group leaders.
Teens must attend with a parish or school group, with the necessary number of chaperones, and cannot buy tickets individually.
Please sign up here if your high school student is interested in attending. If you would like to be a chaperone for this event, please indicate on the form. This event sells out quickly!!!
