FAQs

What ages come to the conference?

Single Catholics of all ages come to the conference from all over the country – and internationally too! No matter what your age, you will find others in the same age group.

Is this conference for me?

If you’re a single adult, whether never married, annulled, divorced, or widowed, the answer is Yes!

What if I’m divorced and don’t have an annulment?

Even if you do not have annulment, attending the conference for the purpose of strengthening your relationship with God and meeting like-minded people who share your faith (and possibly have shared your experiences) is a good thing. There is so much to gain from the entire conference experience for those who, for whatever reason, are not looking to date at this time. Our hope is to encourage you in your faith and introduce to you a welcoming community of people. Hopefully the weekend will provide you with some great resources and will inspire you to take that energy back to your local parish.

Understanding the pain that is caused by divorce, we know that choosing to begin the annulment process can be a difficult decision and is very personal. We encourage you to seek out your parish priest or contact your diocesan tribunal office for guidance and to learn more.

How far is the conference from the airport?

The conference site is about 30 minutes from the DTW International Airport. However, you may find another airport better suited to your travel needs. Check out this guide to airports near Detroit.

We have a small block of rooms held here for people to stay the night as well as rooms at the Hilton Garden Inn, 14600 N.

What if I arrive after the conference starts – will I still be able to check in?

Yes, the registration check-in table will be open until 8:30pm on Friday and then throughout the weekend while the sessions are going on. Please check in as soon as you arrive as your registration badge is your ticket into the events.

What is the attire for the weekend?
