Confirmation Retreat


I spent the day at a retreat with a group of High School Juniors who are going to be receiving their Confirmation.  The guest speaker was Chris Padgett, who is amazing and we had a wonderful day filled with prayer, games, good food, and ending with adoration, confession, and Palm Sunday Mass.

As I was sitting in adoration, I really felt blessed for so many things.  To be able to share this experience with these kids, to be lucky to be born into a family with faith, and to have such a blessed life.  I could really feel God's blessings upon me. 

It's an awesome feeling to know that these kids who are about to be confirmed will be going out in the world not only defending but preaching our faith.  They will then be spreading the Word of God by becoming part of a Ministry and teaching our faith to their own families.  It's an amazing feeling to see God's love grow and spread.

God is an awesome God!
