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.

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.

That’s what Rise Up 2026 is about. God moves. And if you let Him, life is never quite the same.

ALL IN ONE PLACE

There is nothing quite like being in a room full of people your age who actually get it.

Young Catholics from every province. Students, graduates, young professionals. All in one place. For many, just seeing that room for the first time is enough.

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.

No, anyone is welcome. If you’re Christian, curious, or somewhere in between, you’ll find a place here.

Totally. A lot of people come alone — many show up not knowing a single person. Rise Up is an easy place to make friends. Meeting people, making friends — 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.
