Last weekend I helped with a Confirmation Retreat here in SoCal for 250 candidates (14-17 years old) and 80 team members (mostly 18-25 years old). Usually we marshal everyone in the school or hall while we wait to load the buses but there was a scheduling conflict and neither was available so we put everyone in the Church. One of the young adult leaders decided to lead them in a Rosary (Glorious Mysteries). It was a minor miracle in that it spontaneously became a reverent, holy event. No chatter, could have heard a pin drop between prayers. Retreat was a great success. Just sayin.....
P.S. There also was 24 hour Adoration for the team members and Confession available for all up at the site, but that’s another story
