The Presence is an encounter with Jesus in the Eucharist specifically for 9th—12th grade high school youth that brings them to the merciful and loving the real presence of Christ. Cost for this year's retreat is $90 per student. This year's event will take place at the Sherman Lake YMCA. Participants must attend as part of a group.
The Presence Retreat will again count as an option to complete a Confirmation retreat for those of high school age preparing to receive that sacrament. Confirmation candidates should coordinate their attendance with our parish Confirmation Director, Chad at [email protected] if you are interested.
All adult participants must be properly background-checked and Virtus complete. No exceptions. For information on background-checks and Virtus certification, contact your parish or collaborative Safety Environment Coordinator.
