GrACE Youth Summit Update
October 06, 2025
Listening, Adapting, and Moving Forward Together!
Dear GrACE Apostles,
The GrACE Youth Summit, originally scheduled for October 24, 2025, has been postponed due to the current labour disruption. With 450 participants expected in person and another 350 online, the Summit depends heavily on teacher and chaperone support — commitments that cannot be secured at this time.
Following feedback from some school divisions noting that May 15, 2026, is a professional development day, GrACE is taking this opportunity to review and discern the most suitable date to ensure full representation and participation across Alberta, the Northwest Territories, and the Yukon.
Our goal remains to choose a time that allows the widest possible engagement of students, staff, families, and parishes — so that the Summit truly reflects the unity and living faith of our Catholic community.
GrACE is deeply grateful for the understanding and support of our partners as we continue this conversation of faith and mission.
Further updates will be shared as discernment progresses and plans develop.
We look forward to gathering when full participation, shared witness, and lasting impact can once again be achieved.
Blessings and much love.
'Jesus, I trust in You'!
Kate
Executive Director | GrACE
