Saturday, November 10th 1pm - 8pm

Join us for our first Confirmation Day Retreat hosted by Our Lady of Good Council Catholic Church in Plymouth Michigan.  We will spend the day encountering the Lord through music, small groups, tons of activities, mass, adoration and so much more!  The cost is free to all St. Andrew Confirmandi as it is included in the Confirmation Fee. Youth will be transported by bus to and from Our Lady of Good Council.

**This is a change from the originally scheduled date of November 17th.  

The confirmation retreat is a weekend-long experience that is designed to be fun and relaxing. It is designed specifically for our confirmation  students who are seeking the Sacrament of Confirmation.  

On retreat, you will spend lots of quality time with your small group, and attend large group presentations and activities.  This is a chance to be spiritualy renewed, to learn more about your Catholic faith.  MOST IMPORTANTLY, this is a time for YOU to encounter Jesus Christ, and understand how God fits into the big picture of your life.


Retreats are an integral part of faith formation because they allow us to "retreat" (get away, take a break) from our everyday commitments and responsibilities.  Retreats give us a chance to temporarily shut off the pressures of the outside world.  This allows us to more authentically reflect, pray, listen, and form bnew friendships in a way that is hard to do with all the noise (literal and figurative) that fills our normal daily life.  

YOU DESERVE A WEEKEND LIKE THIS!

Saturday, February 9th from 10 am - 4:30 PM
Featuring Chris Epplett, Lifeteen Area Coach

Confirmandi will learn the true meaning the impact the Holy Spirit can have on their lives when they "confirm" their yes to the Lord.  They will spend the day learning about the Father's Relentless love for us and how he never stops pursuing us. We will learn how to embrace the Holy Spirit and the gifts imparted to us and how to live our lives as authentic Catholics in a world that questions our faith. We will spend time in adoration, prayer and praise and worship along with many interactive games and activities.
