Sunday, March 18, was a very special day for our candidates for Confirmation. They devoted the day to a retreat experience in preparation for the gift of the Holy Spirit to be received at Confirmation on April 28. The retreat was directed by the young people of the National Evangelization Team…who hail from all parts of our country. The retreat received many “rave reviews” and we pray that it readied the confirmandi to receive the graces of the sacrament.
