      Diocesan Youth Release Form

      Both the fee and the release form can be turned in at the retreat itself.


      We can also come to you to do a retreat!
      If the above dates do not work for you or if you'd like to have your own retreat we can plan and facilitate a retreat and send a retreat team out to you! Retreats can be customized to whatever your needs are. To have the Diocese put on a retreat, you must have at least 20 participants either from your parish or a group of parishes. We can do any type of retreat whether it is Confirmation, middle school or high school youth ministry retreats, or anything else!

      If you have questions, please contact Tim Messenger at 508-929-4360 or at [email protected].

    • Retreats for Catholic Schools

      The Youth Ministry Office can also help to plan and/or run a retreat for your Catholic school! Retreats can be customized to whatever the needs of your school are whether is is a day-long retreat, part of the day, or a weekend retreat (limited availability). Retreats include a mix of social and spiritual experiences. Typical retreats contain icebreakers, talks, team-building, music, prayer, and worship. Mass, Adoration, and confession are highly recommended (priest needed). To schedule a retreat at your school or for more questions, contact Tim Messenger at [email protected]
