YOUTH CONFIRMATION
We desire that these retreats allow a chance for our young people to encounter Christ, and experience transformative moments. Attending a Confirmation retreat is about learning the meaning of Confirmation and discovering God’s unconditional love and the importance of entering a relationship with Him.
All candidates are required to attend a retreat before their Confirmation.
For more information please contact the Office of Faith, Family, and Discipleship at [email protected].
The Most Reverend Larry J. Kulick, JCL will meet with the youth preparing for the Sacrament of Confirmation in 2024 at the following deanery gatherings. These gatherings will be an opportunity for our youth to pray and share their concerns with the Bishop and to hear the essential message of the Gospel offered to them as they enter the final stages of their preparation.
