A team of Cistercian students went with Fr. John to serve the Confirmation Retreat at the Notre Dame School of Dallas. Together we made catechetical skits about the Prodigal Son and the Parable of the Talents, and we talked about the GIFTS of the Holy Spirit (wisdom, understanding, right judgment, courage, knowledge, reverence, piety). The mission of the Notre Dame School springs from “recognizing that each person is created in the image of God” and involves educating “students with developmental disabilities” and facilitating “their integration into society.” We are happy to have been able to support their mission by serving their Confirmation retreat!
