Join us on campus for one of Benedictine College’s Catholic summer youth camps, designed with the current high school student in mind. Hundreds of students and youth ministers had the time of their lives last summer, and we are looking forward to five total youth programs in June and July 2025, including four sessions of our popular academic camps and one large-scale, passionately Catholic youth conference.

Youth Ministry at a Newman Guide Catholic College

The Catholic faith is at the core of Benedictine College’s mission, and our youth programs reflect that devotion to Jesus Christ. Our commitment to the faith has caused us to be recommended in the Newman Guide ever since it was first published!

“My favorite parts of BCYC would be making new friends and growing closer to Christ through them, going to Adoration, and all the fun activities we did!”
