Youth Leadership Retreat
We are excited to offer a Youth Leadership Retreat at Crosswoods Camp in Mason, WI the weekend of October 25-27, 2024. One of the most important things we can do in youth ministry is to teach, train, and encourage our young people to use their God-given gifts for Him. While they are the future of the Church, there are also, very much, the present and now is the time to invite them to be part of our Church now. Too often we see our young people get Confirmed, then leave. This is our opportunity to say, “Wait! There’s so much more!” and “We need you!” This leadership retreat will be a time for you to work with your young people to help them understand how to identify and use the gifts and talents God has given them, and make a plan for how they can use them in your parish. Please have your youth and chaperones register for this retreat using this link: Participant Portal
