On December 18-20, 2015, sixty-two teens came to their Confirmation retreat at Divine Word Retreat Center in Riverside, CA! The theme of the retreat was “Full Filled” which encouraged the teens to empty themselves of all the things and people that distract them from developing a relationship with God. It is when we choose to fill ourselves with God– His love, His mercy, and His commandments- that we are truly Full Filled!!
Jesse Beguyo, age 17, stated in his testimony, “I never knew that I could pray through music...Through this retreat, my faith was renewed!” Isaac McElroy, age 16, testified, “I feel so blessed to have been able to attend this retreat, because it gave me the opportunity to develop a deeper relationship with God!!
May the hearts of these teens continue to burn for God now and forever!!
