Today was a blessed day as our confirmation students and teachers participated in our first confirmation retreat at St. Therese. Breakfast and lunch were provided. We opened with a prayer after which we discussed expectations, participated in icebreakers, played music and danced the twist with Chubby Checker. There were 3 sessions with 2 videos each: His Desire and His Presence session 1, Our Gifts and His Advocate session 2, and Our Life and Our Holiness Session 3. . During these sessions students watched videos and participated in group discussions. Activities included Bible-Opoly, hands on activities, a puzzle contest using the lesson we are many parts but one body, and prayed the Divine Mercy Chaplet. We ended the day with with a discussion about discipleship and prayer followed by adoration of the Blessed Sacrament. Time was also allotted for answers to questions about the church.
