This program gives your youth the opportunity to prepare their hearts for the sacraments as we cover the building blocks of our faith. Students are required to register for and attend high school youth group during the 24/25 school year. This will allow the youth to build connections with their peers and grow together in community.  They are also required to complete 12 hours or more of service here at Risen Christ prior to their Confirmation in the spring of 2025.  Finally, each high school teen in the sacrament prep program must attend the Idaho Catholic Youth Conference in March of 2025.

What is the Idaho Catholic Youth Conference? ICYC is a weekend long conference in Nampa, ID where historically over 1600 CATHOLIC HIGH SCHOOL TEENAGERS gather to share their passion for their faith. Though the conference is close by, the teens that attend ICYC with Risen Christ will be spending two nights in a hotel and be immersed in this faith growing and community building experience!  To get an idea of what to expect, please watch the promotion video created by the Diocese of Boise.
