This Sunday began with an early start next door at
St. Mary’s for Mass at seven in the morning for Aaron, Callie, Michael and me. After
Mass we headed back to Mount Tabor to get ready for the upcoming retreat we had
that day. We had a Confirmation retreat here at Mount Tabor for the
Confirmation students at St. Margaret Mary in Neenah. The chapel was booming
with singing and praising God because they were over fifty students here with
us on retreat. It was awesome! The day was filled with singing, activities,
movie clips, witnesses from us SPIRITUS members and pizza! I hope the students
left the retreat understanding a little better how much Jesus loves them and
how they can be better disciples of Him, especially through the Sacrament of
Confirmation. The retreat ended in the early evening which meant time for us to
clean up Mount Tabor and put everything back into pre-retreat mode. We also
took time to talk through the retreat and discuss what went well and also in
what areas we need to improve for next time. After everything was cleaned up
and discussed we said good bye to the boys and the girls had a low key night
after the busyness of retreat.
I hope you have enjoyed our week of blog updates on
the daily happenings of SPIRITUS! I've definitely enjoyed writing these posts, letting you know a little bit more about the ministry. God Bless!
Thanks for describing a typical full week of evangelization ministry with SPIRITUS, Rachel. It's great to hear the excitement in your voice. The passion you have for the youth you serve and your teammates is really evident!
