 primarily for 6th-8th graders, but can include senior high i
 f they have not yet been confirmed. They are to enhance the 
 confirmation experience of churches who might not have their
  own confirmation retreat for those young people who are lea

 a profession of faith. It will be a weekend of learning from
  a variety of educational experiences and presentations by l
