We recently hosted our 3rd annual GIANT Confirmation retreat for over 400 students from schools and parishes throughout the Archdiocese. This was our biggest retreat yet, and we have already heard back from so many students and chaperones about how much they received from the experience.
The retreat included catechetical talks by Bishop Bob, Sr. Macey, Sr. Alicia, and some Chicago priests and seminarians, testimonies, worship music led by the incredible Opera Christi, small group discussions, occasional game breaks hosted by MC’s Sr. Jess and Chicago seminarian Conrad, a pizza lunch, opportunity for confession, Eucharistic Adoration, a Eucharistic healing procession led by Bishop Bob, and a Eucharistic procession over to the chapel for the closing Mass.
Special thanks to St. Ignatius College Prep for allowing us to use their incredible facilities once again and to all the volunteers and supporters who helped to make the day possible! Please join us in continuing to pray for all of these 400+ confirmandi as they move closer and closer to their respective Confirmation dates.
