Confirmation candidates who attend Wednesday evening Faith Formation (in person or from home):
Confirmation candidates who receive instruction through Faith Formation are expected to attend the parish portion of the retreat both Friday evening (approximate start time of 6pm) and then Saturday (8:00am through 4pm).  We ask that you click on the button below (The Father's Heart) and then following directions to sign up for the retreat.  You will not be charged for the student’s attendance to the retreat as this was covered by your Confirmation registration fees.
