Youth leaders from Oblate Youth Canada, with other volunteers, led a retreat at St. Eugene's Parish in Brampton and St. Therese's in Courtice for young people preparing to receive the Sacrament of Confirmation. Through conferences, personal testimony of faith, and community prayer, the young people encouraged the younger ones to get involved in the life of the parish community and live their faith especially after completing their Confirmation preparation and receiving the sacrament.
