Saturday, Sept. 30 at Marian High School in Mishawaka
Saturday, March 9 at Bishop Dwenger High School in Fort Wayne
These highly engaging and enriching retreats are open to groups from parishes and schools, both those who are unable to facilitate their own retreat and those who want to supplement their parish retreat with this dynamic, large-scale retreat opportunity. Check the schedule for an outline of the day’s events and find more information in the DRE / Principal’s packet. Registration forms are available at the bottom of the page. If you have questions, please contact John Pratt at [email protected].
Please also note, that we will continue to make available the Virtual Diocesan Confirmation Retreat that was published in 2020. That resource can be useful if a student is sick or otherwise unable to attend an in-person retreat.
