A retreat is required as part of the Confirmation Preparation program in 8th grade. There are two options for our students described below. Please discern and choose which one that you think would be the best option for you and your family.
We hope many of our students will take advantage of this opportunity. This is a retreat at a camp called Damascus Catholic Missions in Centerburg, OH.
This is a dynamic retreat which includes not only powerful sessions to help your child encounter Jesus, but it also includes opportunities for high adventure activities. This retreat takes place Friday - Sunday, March 25-27, 2022. We will take a bus to and from the retreat. The cost is $120.00. The amount for transportation will be determined closer to the date of the retreat.
This retreat may be longer and more expensive, but it is completely worth it! What better time to invest in a life-changing experience for your child than right before Confirmation? We only have 75 spaces available, so claim yours today!
