Confirmation Retreat

Confirmands from your congregation embark on a meaningful journey of faith at Wanake's Confirmation Retreat – a transformative experience designed to deepen spiritual connections, foster community, and celebrate the confirmation of your confirmand(s) faith journey.

Make plans now to have your confirmand, confirmands, or confirmation class be a part of this weekend of exploration, reflection, and joy as they take the next step in their commitment to faith.

This is a weekend for the confirmands from your church to dive into their faith and meet youth from other congregations also exploring confirmation.

Skilled teachers and communicators make learning hands-on, fun, and unforgettable. Participants explore the sacraments, prayer, how we experience God, and what makes us United Methodist.
