Confirmation retreats focus on becoming a true person of CHRISTIAN SERVICE by using the Gift of the Holy Spirit to reach out to others. 

"At my Confirmation retreat, I learned that one person can truly make a difference. Even though we are finishing our mandatory service projects for Confirmation, that doesn't mean we can't continue helping people. When we receive Confirmation, we receive the Holy Spirit in a more complete way. The gifts of the Holy Spirit will help us to continue serving others after we receive Confirmation. We will follow in Jesus' footsteps."

~Kimberly, Grade 9 St. Catherine of Sienna Parish, Cedar Grove, NJ

"Ms. Licata is someone who can take a group of uninspired and unmotivated teens and turn them into people who are eager to get involved with their faith and help others. Her inspirational and motivational talks about how it feels to serve others are quite moving. By the end of a retreat with Ms. Licata, you will see a change in the way your teens think about faith. Making the difference in the world starts with Ms. Licata stepping in to work with your teens."

" Something I learned was that I can do community service and not be made fun of. This retreat really inspired me to do community service and to work with people less fortunate than me. I feel more prepared for Confirmation because I am willing to do more for others."
