Gian is a Youth Conference MC + Keynote Speaker who helps young people encounter Jesus so they can become who they were always meant to be. He and his wife and kids live in the big ol’ state of Texas, USA. You may remember him from CYC 2025 where he led us in Praise & Worship music and delivered a spirit-filled men’s session talk.
Archbishop Carney Secondary School,
Port Coquitlam
This year’s theme “Called, Chosen, Sent” highlights how God invites young people into His mission, just as the early Church discerned new servants in Acts 6 (called), affirms their identity as a “chosen people” built on Christ the cornerstone in 1 Peter 2 (chosen), and empowers them through Jesus’ promise in John 14 to continue His work in the world (sent). Together, these readings reveal that every young person is called to serve with love, chosen by God with purpose and dignity, and sent by Christ to bring His hope and presence to their community and beyond.
