Byzantine Catholic Youth (BCY)

  • Purpose
    The purpose of the BCY is to instill Christian ideals into the social, cultural, religious and athletic aspects of teenage lives. It is a program that is independent from the parish School of Religion. Instead it is designed to help teenagers live and experience that which has been taught in their religious instruction classes. It is hoped that this program will give teenagers a Christian formation and will help them develop an interest in their church and in the community.
