Diocesan NET Retreat (Gr 6-8)
About the Retreat
In a world where our identity is being shaped both positively and negatively by others, how can we find a stable self-worth? During this retreat, attendees explore how we are unconditionally seen, known, and loved by God and can be sure of our value through him. The retreat day includes games, skits, dynamic talks, small-group discussions where kids can share honestly about faith and life, and a time of guided prayer and worship.
The cost is $30/participant and includes an awesome lunch (catered by Lunchbox). The retreat runs from 10am-4pm on Saturday, Dec 12, 2026, at Paroisse Saint-Gabriel (55 Appleford St). It is open to youth in grades 6-8.
Payment must be made via etransfer to france.hotte@ottawacornwall.ca with the password “diocese”.
About NET Canada
NET is a Catholic Youth Ministry Organization based out of Ottawa. We see that many young people lose their faith by the time they leave high school. NET sends teams of young adults to share their faith in schools and churches, so youth are transformed and re-engaged in their Catholic faith.
What is a NET retreat?
A NET retreat is an opportunity for your child to encounter God, maybe for the first time. Perhaps they attend church with you or are involved in youth group but haven’t yet made faith their own. This retreat day is designed to help them encounter Jesus personally. It gives them the space to share honestly, ask questions, and be inspired by other young people who have chosen to give their lives to Jesus.
