What people are saying:


“The thing I love most about these events is how united you feel to the people around you. Even though you may not know many people when you arrive, everyone there is united through Christ and is aware of that connection.” –Diocesan Teen

"It is so inspiring to see our young people come together for opportunities like this and witness how they all come to encounter Christ in a different way ... for some it is the beauty of Mass, a song they may sing or sitting in the presence of the Lord in Eucharistic Adoration, for others it might be the truth that is shared with them from our Bishop and for another teen, hands on service to benefit a sister or brother in need may enlighten them." –A Parish Youth Minister

About Lee Roessler


Lee’s relationship with music began in junior high when he would play at recess hoping that his peers would throw their snacks in his opened guitar case. His high school band shared many musical and ministry adventures which led Lee into a professional music career in his senior year. Lee’s original music has been featured as Catholic Heart Work Camp theme songs and an ABC’s Extreme Weight Loss episode.

Lee currently travels the US leading worship and concerts for camps, parishes, conferences, rallies and retreats. His life can be summed up in the words he lives by, ”Your will O Lord, nothing more, nothing less, nothing else.”

Favorite Scripture:
“If you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.” (Romans 10:9)
