The Steubenville South Service Crew + Franciscan L.E.A.D. programs are engaging retreat + service + leadership experiences.

We’re getting the band back together!  We are so excited to have Service Crew back in 2024!  Service Crew is an engaging retreat and service experience.  Members come together earlier in the week for retreat and community activities.  On Thursday, the Crew begins to prepare the conference site for the arrival of almost 2,000 teens, volunteers, priests, and religious!  Service Crew provides hands-on work through the conference weekend, serving the needs of all participants, staff, and volunteers.  Service Crew is a great way to connect with other youth, learn more about the Catholic faith, and serve the local Church.

Service Crew is open to youth who have previously attended a Steubenville Youth Conference, and are currently entering their sophomore year of high school through those graduating this coming spring.  Those interested in participating in Service Crew may apply below.

The Franciscan L.E.A.D. program will not take place at this year’s Steubenville South Conference, but we look forward to hosting it again in the future.
