LOVES PARK, BATAVIA—Young men in the Diocese of Rockford are invited to two retreats this summer to discern the priesthood. 

 

Father Jack Reichardt, Vocations Office director, will lead the one-day retreats along with current seminarians. The days’ activities will include talks, games, Mass, confessions, and much more. 

 

Participants will be placed in one of two “tracks” for different ages: Track One for seventh through ninth grade (12 years minimum) and Track Two for grades ten and up (generally, 25 years maximum, though exceptions can be made.)
