Calling all Confirmation Catechists and Youth Group Leaders!

February 10, 2022

With a range of in-person events taking place across the Diocese and beyond in the coming months people's calendars are beginning to fill up. Our brilliant Youth Officer Lizzie contacted Confirmation Catechists and Youth Group Leaders earlier this week to share a selection of exciting upcoming events aimed at young people. Lizzie writes:

"It’s been a tough couple of years, all the usual events that we encourage our young people to engage with have been cancelled or postponed, and our ability to spiritually renew ourselves has been hampered by an inability to gather together. But as things are getting back to normal, I am delighted to announce that these events are back!"

There is so much being planned, with lots more events still to be announced:

Lourdes Redshirt Bookings are open!

We are really excited to be travelling to Lourdes again this year. Why not encourage your young people to consider signing up for this amazing opportunity? You can find out more here.
