Our Lady of The Lake Retreat Team is focused on preparing students to receive the Sacrament of Confirmation through 3 retreats.
There is also a special retreat just for team called Paths to Peace!
Retreat Team Commitment
We require High School students to attend 12 out of the 26 scheduled meetings. We have 17 Sunday meetings and 9 Monday meetings. The Team attends the 12 pm mass, followed by the 1 pm retreat meeting that includes lunch. The meetings last until 2:15 p.m. in the Youth Group Room.
College students are required to attend 5 meetings either on Sunday or Monday.
All team members are required to attend one entire retreat and are requested to attend two of the three planned retreats for the Confirmandi. We also ask that you attend a Sacrament of Confirmation Mass for support.
A commitment contract will be given to sign.
WHY ATTEND MASS?
In order to provide peer support to those who are preparing for the Sacrament of Confirmation, it is important for each of us to receive the Eucharist as a community of faith. Our spiritual nourishment is received at Mass. It is also important to listen to the Gospel and to love and serve the Lord.
