Summer Conferences
Faith, Community & Summer Fun
Growing as disciples of Christ at Regis St. Mary continues when the summer begins. There are a number of opportunities for students to continue to grow in their faith.
Vacation Bible School
Each June, our younger Rams have the opportunity to attend Vacation Bible School hosted by the Santiam Vicariate parishes. Our high school students are encouraged to assist as volunteers at this wonderful week of learning each year.
Steubenville Northwest Youth Conference
During July, we partner with the parishes of the Santiam Vicariate to take students to the Steubenville Northwest Youth Conference for five days in Spokane, Washington. Part of this includes a visit to Silverwood Theme Park. Steubenville Northwest is open to rising freshmen through graduating seniors. Each summer nearly, 50% of the student body from Regis High School participates in this trip.

Life Teen Leadership Conference Benedictine College
Rising Juniors and Seniors who are ready to take the next step in their discipleship journey have the opportunity to attend the Life Teen Leadership Conference at Benedictine College. After completing this week long period of formation, these members return equipped to evangelize their peers. We attend this conference every other year and look forward to taking 12 students the summer of 2026.
Summer Seminary Immersion Program—Notre Dame
Rising junior and senior young men with the academic aptitude and interest in discerning the priesthood have the opportunity to apply to the Summer Seminary Immersion Program at the University of Notre Dame. During this two week program, they are led by priests of the Holy Cross Congregation to increase their knowledge of the faith and grow closer to Christ through times of prayer, receiving the sacraments and fellowship with other students attending the program.
Quo Vadis Days—Archdiocese of Portland
Each year, we support high school students learning more about the priesthood by attending Quo Vadis Days at the Father Bernard Youth Center.
