In place of a NET retreat for this year, you may consider attending our Diocesan Youth Conference (DYC) which is scheduled to be “in person” on February 4, 2023.  While DYC is not designed specifically as a Confirmation retreat, it is very much a potential “encounter experience” for your young people that includes powerful music and witness talks, break outs, adoration, confession, and Mass with Bishop O’Connell.

Additional Confirmation retreat options can be found HERE. 

NET Ministries is an international youth ministry that challenges young Catholics to love Christ and embrace the life of the Church. This mission is fulfilled through youth retreats across the country. 


Goals of a NET Retreat:

• To help young people understand and accept God's unconditional love for them. 

• To offer the faith of the team members as a witness to the youth that faith in God is desirable, acceptable, and exciting part of their lives.

• To encourage young people to grow in their commitment to Jesus Christ and His Church.
