Please Pray For...

...DS#2 and the members of his Youth Ministry group who are going on a retreat this weekend. While I would prefer the program have a bit more catechetical rigor and a bit less of the "get in touch with your feelings about God" stuff, retreats from the world to concentrate on the Spirit are important. Even if he thinks he didn't learn anything or "get" anything from it.

Confirmation is a two-year process in our parish and DS#2 is in his first year, along with many of his former classmates from our parish school. So the group is still trying to discover their "identity" and form relationships and bonds. About 50 of them will be on retreat this weekend. I hope the weather cooperates, too!
