Confirmation Retreat 2025

March 7-8, 2025

Don Lee Camp and Retreat Center will host it's annual Confirmation Retreat on the weekend of March 7th. Bring your confirmation group to Camp Don Lee as we explore Confirmation as an important step in the journey of faith. Confirmands will be led through a retreat that will serve as an opportunity to delve deeper into what it means to be a United Methodist as a supplement to their confirmation work in their local church. Youth will examine what it means to claim their Christian calling for themselves and create stoles expressing this personal faith and calling. We will use the Credo curriculum as our theological guide for this retreat.

Rev. Caitlin Delamar will lead our 2025 Confirmation Retreat. Rev. Delamar is the Faith Formation Coordinator at Camp Don Lee and an ordained deacon of the Virginia Conference of the UMC. Rev. Delamar is excited to serve as a part of the Confirmation Retreat team this year at this place God has blessed!

As we continue to plan and put in the faithful work to make this retreat a milestone experience for those who attend, please reach out to Charlie Johnson for more information.
