Confirmation Class Retreat
(11/11/05 - 11/13/05)

The Confirmation Class went on a retreat at Silver Lake the weekend of November 11th thru 13th. The retreat was an opportunity for them to meet other Confirmands from UCC churches throughout Connecticut as well as deepen their faith and learn more about the United Church of Christ. Rev. Esslinger and Les Kurz also attended and participated in the retreat with the class.
