Faith can feel lonely. On campus, at work, even with your friends — living your faith can feel hard and isolating. Like you’re the only one.

BUT YOU’RE NOT Alone.

Every year, close to 1,000 young Catholics from all over Canada gather at Rise Up — students, young professionals, and people just like you who want to go deeper with their faith.

Faith can feel lonely. Most of the time — on campus, at work, even with your friends — living your faith can feel hard and isolating. Like you’re the only one.

BUT YOU’RE NOT Alone.

Every year, close to 1,000 young Catholics from every province in Canada gather at Rise Up — students, young professionals, and people just like you who want to go deeper with their faith.

RISE UP 2026 —
GIANTS WILL FALL.

RISE UP 2026 —
GIANTS WILL FALL.

Every young Catholic faces giants. Doubt. Isolation. Fear. The pressure to shrink your faith down so it fits more comfortably into the world around you.

David didn’t defeat Goliath with better armour

He showed up with what he had, faith and trust in God so complete that he walked forward anyway.

You can do the same. God moves at Rise Up. And if you let Him, you’ll never be the same.

ALL IN ONE PLACE

There is nothing quite like being in a room full of people on the same journey as you.

Young Catholics from every province. Students, graduates, young professionals. All in one place.

You’ll feel the energy in the room.

What People Are Saying

“Just do it! Be open to every experience and just give yourself to God”

Jessie, UOttawa

“I feel a renewal in my spirit. I feel more free, more joyful and at peace because of my experience at Rise Up” 

Alexander, Concordia

“Listening to the talks tugged this closed-off portion of my heart. I’m able to fully trust God that I’m not alone in my journey. There’s hope.”

Nino, Calgary

Great talks. Authentic worship. Daily Mass, confession, and workshops built around your faith. But honestly? Your favourite part will probably be the people, … and adoration.

EVERYONE LOVES
ADORATION.

A FEW COMMON QUESTIONS.

A FEW COMMON QUESTIONS.

No issues here! You are welcome.

It’s all good. A lot of people come alone. Many show up kinda maybe recognizing some people. Rise Up is an easy place to make friends. Meeting people, who become your people, it’s kind of the whole point. And Jesus….can’t forget him.

Most attendees stay in the conference hotel. Once you register you’ll receive access to a discounted room block. We recommend quad occupancy — it’s the most affordable option and honestly more fun.

Rise Up is for anyone aged 18–35. Most attendees are university students and recent graduates, but young professionals are very much at home here too.

You can reserve your spot today with a $100 deposit and pay the remaining balance later. It’s the easiest way to lock in your spot and secure early bird pricing before the cost goes up.

THIS NEW YEAR’S,
FACE YOUR GIANTS.

Every young Catholic has them. The fears, the doubts, the voices that say your faith doesn’t belong in the real world. Rise Up 2026 exists for the young Catholic who is ready to stop shrinking and start living their faith out loud.
