SEARCHING IN THE SPIRIT
for youth born in 2009 & entering Grade 8 in September 2022
Searching in the Spirit provides youth (and their adult leaders accompanying them) with formation in discipleship and challenges the participants to live out their faith in everyday, real-life situations. By combining practical skills, a faith perspective and spiritual development, the participants learn and grow in their faith through activities, presentations, games, skits, reflection, sharing and the opportunity to practice skills in a safe environment.
Integral parts of this formation experience include: prayer, community-building, and outdoor recreation activities.Most of all, it inspires the newly-Confirmed to continue on in their faith journey as they enter high school.
This retreat takes place at Camp Jubilee from August 29 to September 2.
Cost: $450 per person
Email [email protected] to get the forms – complete & drop off at the Parish Office by June 24th, 2022. – payments can be made to St.Patrick’s Parish.
