We held our final Confirmation retreat of the spring where 8 parishes were represented: Our Lady of Fatima, St. Barnabas, St. Mark, St. Anthony, St. Rocco, St. Joseph, St. Margaret and St. Elizabeth. This year's theme was Signed, Sealed, and Sent. Through engaging talks and activities, teens learned about the Rite of Confirmation and what will actually take place on their Confirmation day. We had many opportunities for prayer and reflection, especially time before the Lord in the Blessed Sacrament, which was always the teens' favorite part of the day!

Fr. Ryan Connors taught the class on Life in Christ: Part 1.

We had 19 engaged couples attend Marriage Preparation at St. Pius V.

Over 120 high school students, parents, and young adults gathered at the Cathedral for an inspiring evening with national Catholic speaker Jackie Angel, who delivered a powerful and thought-provoking talk on dating and marriage. Her message was both deeply moving and convicting, challenging attendees to reflect on their relationships and faith. The evening concluded with a time of Adoration and the opportunity for Confession, offering a spiritually-enriching experience for all who attended.

We held our annual Middle School Conference on Friday April 4th at Holy Apostles Church and welcomed national Catholic speaker, Jackie Angel! She spoke to over 500 middle school students about being on fire for your Catholic faith and how to love God, your neighbor, and yourself well! It was an incredible turnout and students loved the day.
