As our Confirmation journey continues, we’re excited to bring together all of our candidates for their first mini-retreat this Sunday, November 16, in Star Hall at St. Mary’s (directly beneath the church).
This retreat is required for all Confirmation students — whether attending St. John School, public school, or homeschooling — and will take place from 12:00 PM to 2:00 PM.
Lunch will be provided for all students, so come ready to share faith, food, and fellowship! 🥪
Why This Retreat Matters
This short but meaningful time together helps candidates:
-
Reflect on what it means to prepare for the Sacrament of Confirmation.
-
Grow in community with other students walking the same journey of faith.
-
Experience prayer, discussion, and reflection in a fun, supportive setting.
Our Confirmation retreats are more than just a requirement — they are a chance to encounter Christ more deeply and to strengthen the bonds of our parish family.
