Catholics at the Shore

A Sacred Gathering of Faith & Fellowship in Avalon

Step away from the busyness of daily life and into a time of deep faith formation, meaningful conversation, and spiritual renewal. Catholics at the Shore is a two-and-a-half-day immersive experience, bringing together some of the most insightful voices in the Church today.

Through inspiring talks, enriching discussions, and moments of prayer, this gathering is designed to strengthen both heart and mind. It’s an opportunity to connect with fellow Catholics who share a desire to grow in faith, deepen their understanding, and build relationships that will last far beyond the weekend.

Set against one of the most breathtaking backdrops in the United States, Avalon New Jersey, this event is more than just a conference—it’s a time to be refreshed, encouraged, and reminded of the beauty of our faith.

Event Highlights:

  • Inspiring Speakers: Engage with a diverse lineup of speakers, including Father Mike Schmitz, known for his dynamic ministry and popular podcasts; Immaculée Ilibagiza, a survivor of the Rwandan genocide and renowned author; and Kristan Hawkins, a dedicated advocate for life.

  • Meaningful Connections: Participate in enriching discussions and build lasting relationships with fellow attendees who share a passion for faith and community.

  • Spiritual Renewal: Experience deep faith formation through Holy Mass, Eucharistic Adoration, and opportunities for confession and spiritual direction.
