Confirmation Retreat
DATE: Sunday, February 25, 2018
TIME: 1:30-6:30
PLACE: St Ann's
Our retreat is being facilitated by NET Ministries (National Evangelization Team). NET is a Catholic youth ministry with a mission to challenge young Catholics to love Christ and embrace the life of the Church. On an annual basis, more than 100 young women and men, after participating in an extensive training program, are grouped into teams of 10-12 and sent out in vans to travel across the United States to share their faith and invite all they meet to give their lives to Jesus. We have seen these teams in action year after year and they are both spiritually gifted and practically trained! They have much to offer our young people. Our team of 12 young women and men will travel from parish to parish during their time in our diocese. Each parish will provide housing and meals for them both during and after the retreat and before they leave for the next parish. We ask that you, prayerfully, consider opening your home to 2 or more members of the team while they are here. They will enrich your family as they do our students, but you give them the gift of family when their own are so far away.

- We will supply dinner and drinks but are asking families for donations of hand-held snacks.
- Students should wear comfortable but respectful clothing and are expected to attend the entire retreat.
- Most schools recognize that students must be excused (by law) for religious events. We have provided a letter to print out if your school/team requires verification of this event, but only parents can request release from school
