Diocese of Lake Charles

Keynote Speaker

Keynote Speaker Announcement Coming Soon!

Our 2025 Conference theme is the Church Fathers. In the first centuries of the Church, these men defended the faith with eloquent writings, sophisticated theology, and steady witness to Christ until death. Their writings reveal to us the ancient worship of Christians, the communion within the Church in the earliest times, and the early conceptualization of doctrines with which we are now familiar.

Come learn about the early Church and those Christian witnesses whose lives still enrich us today!

For years, the Veritas Conference has featured insightful keynote speakers and breakout leaders, strengthening the faith of believers and teaching us to love God more deeply in our daily lives, living more virtuously through the grace of the Eucharist. The grace and power of the Blessed Sacrament is the source of our faith and the driving force behind the Veritas Conference.

September 13, 2025
Doors open at 8 a.m.
