REV Retreat!
Revitalization of the Eucharist and Vocations!
"Let it be done according to your word" (Luke 1:38).
What differentiates the diocesan priesthood from religious order priests? What makes marriage unique among all vocations? Come to our next REV Retreat and find out! All Catholic young adults, high school-aged and older, are invited to participate in a day of vocational exploration and an opportunity to grow in love of the Eucharist.
The retreat will be held at St. Joseph Church, 531 North Main Street in Brewer, on Saturday, May 16, 8:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. It will feature several workshops aimed at helping young adults explore where God might be leading them, whether it is married life, single life, religious life, or the priesthood.
The retreat is sponsored by St. Paul the Apostle Parish in Bangor and the Diocese's Office of Vocations.
