Deacon Allen Tatara is a dynamic and fiery speaker, preacher, storyteller, musician and evangelizer who ministers to groups of all ages. His talk “When is Enough Enough?” examines the increasing stress levels of young adults and how to change habits in order to keep stress to a minimum by putting God first and finding calm amid the chaos of life.

Matt Kresich has served in a variety of college ministries and has a passion for the young adult Catholic community. Over the years, he’s heard the question countless times, “You’re Catholic? So do you actually believe...” Matt will share some of the top questions he’s come across in his inter-Christian ministry involvement and share tips on how to respond.

Fr Dominic Clemente is a priest for the Archdiocese of Chicago and a brewer (and lover) of beer who was interviewed in a TIME magazine article on Millennial Priests. His talk “And God Saw That it was Good: Beer!” discusses the traditions of beer brewing as well as what the church teaches about alcohol consumption.
