Diocesan Youth Leadership Team

Mission Statement

The Diocesan Youth Leadership Team is comprised of youth committed to service and the responsibility of evangelization, through involvement, by providing opportunities to grow in the Catholic faith.
DYLT members act in leadership roles and represent all diocesan youth as a voice for the needs, views, and issues surrounding the young Church. In addition, they seek to grow spiritually and personally as they listen to God’s call and support each other as they discover their role as Christ’s disciples in the Church and the world.

Upcoming Events

Lent 2017 Gospel Reflections

Throughout Lent of 2017, the DYLT has produced daily reflections around the Gospel heard at Mass for that day. These are being shared at approximately 9:15 CST (the first week) and 6:45 CDT (all following weeks) on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram.

DYLT Handbook

The DYLT Handbook is available in two formats:
The "Full-Size Word Document" a copy of the handbook in its usual 8.5 x 11 size.

The Condensed PDF Format is made to be printed as a folded booklet. This can be done by using the following specifications:
  • Set the pages to print in the following order: 8, 1, 2, 7, 6, 3, 4, 5
  • Print double-sided (flip on the SHORT edge)
  • Print "multiple pages" per sheet (otherwise known as pages per side): 2
  • Under page ordering, choose "left to right" or "horizontal"
(If your printer is incapable of printing using the aforementioned specifications, simply print the "Full-Size Word Document.")
