The Christian Renewal Centers offers fully hosted Confirmation Retreats by Cleopas & Company for youth ministers to attend with their students multiple times each year. These retreats are confirmation-specific and will include other parishes as well.

The Confirmation Retreat is fully planned, which allows Youth Ministers and Chaperones to engage in relational ministry with their students. Youth Ministers are responsible for ensuring all adults attending as Chaperones are safe environment current. 

If your youth group is over 70 people, we will schedule a date for your group, pending availability of retreat center and retreat team.
