God is Calling - How will YOU Answer? Day of Discernment

Early in 2011 the Diocese of Newark embarked on a new approach to preparation for ordained ministry as well as service in lay ministries, based on our belief that it would be valuable to have a common discernment program for aspirants to both the priesthood and the diaconate. In addition, the Commission on Ministry wanted to develop discernment programs for a variety of lay ministries in a context that would emphasize the connections between lay and ordained ministry.

This retreat is often the highlight of the year for teens! Youth in grades 9-12 will gather at Cross Roads Camp & Retreat Center in Port Murray, NJ on May 18-20, 2012.
