In light of the recommendation made in the pastoral letter of the NCCB Were Not Our Hearts Burning Within Us, the intended audience for the Parish Mission/Retreat is the adult community of the parish. It is for the on-going faith formation of adults and addresses adult themes and topics. It is not appropriate for youngsters/teenagers and should not be substituted for weekly religious education programs.
