A journey that leads you to discern fully and freely God’s amazing dream for you. 

What is Duc in Altum?

An experience to equip Catholics young adults to discern and live in a fuller and freer way their vocational identity as adults in faith.

To respond to the deepest questions of young adults :  Who am I? Where am I going?  How can I find true happiness? How do I find out what God wants me to be and to do?  How can I discern among so many good choices? 

Conclude the year`’s journey with an explicit desire to making “the will of God”, as it reveals itself in their lives, the focus of their life choices and commitments and be better equipped to nurture this focus.
