The hopes of this evening is to make the parishes aware of the the opportunities of the faith development of the young people within their parishes.
Life as a Catholic today hold many challenges for Catholics today, in their peer groups and church community. Building friendships with their peers like minded in their faith and playing an active role in their parish and community servers to strengthen the young people of our Church. The Pope John Paul II Award is an excellent way to offer the structure for young people to do this.
ADYC hopes to training and develop local parishes to implement this award and to offer ongoing support.

The first of these talks will be given by Mr Declan Coyle, Director of Andec Communications and one of Ireland’s most experienced leadership and development consultants. Declan is much sought after as a conference keynote speaker and his success as a top class inspirational speaker has in recent years been harnessed in many areas where he has given regular goal setting and mental strength motivational sessions.
He was a Columban missionary for 27 years and his commitment to his faith and mission is clearly reflected in his presentations. He’s the author of “The Green Platform” and he writes a weekly motivational column which is published each week in a leading Irish newspaper. Declan’s presentation will help you to discover your inner strengths and it will also help you to focus on what’s most important in your own life.
