Workshops and Retreats
Prayer Workshop:
This exciting workshop uses a variety of
media that is designed to challenge those attending to ask
themselves the question, “Is my prayer life all it can be?”
There are a variety of topics that can be
arranged in a two, three, or four hour workshop. The focus of
this workshop is to educate about the importance of personal prayer
in our lives.
The workshop is ideal as a part of a
Confirmation retreat. It can also be used as part of a
family program on prayer. The two hour time frame of the
workshop works perfectly for a family program.
Sexuality Workshop:
This workshop covers the topic of human sexuality as part of the
Confirmation Preparation Requirements. It is a program designed for
both students and their parents/guardians.
The secular world we live in seems to have sexualized everything
around us: magazine and television advertisements, the music we
listen to, and the programs and movies we watch on television and in
the movies. Where has it gotten us: out of wedlock pregnancy,
divorce, HIV/Aids, STDs, same sex marriage, abortion, pornography,
bullying, sex on the internet, and single motherhood, just to name a
few. Is it any wonder that our young people are growing up with no
clue about what family is, what marriage is, and the purpose of sex
in a committed marriage relationship!
The workshop encourages discussion between students and their
parents/guardians on the topic of sexuality in today’s world using:
· Scripture readings
· Stories
· Music/Lyrics
· Movies
Family Programs:
If your parish needs help in designing an
intergenerational program for your families, we will design a custom
program that will work for your individual parish.
First Communion and Confirmation Retreats:
These retreats are designed to be a hands-on day for the students and a day that will help them prepare more fully for their Sacrament. If you don’t offer a retreat for your students, we can help you put one together that you can use with your students for years to come.
