Immersed in Faith @ Chula Vista!

We had a great weekend at Chula Vista in Wisconsin Dells as we joined over 470 youth from the Diocese of La Crosse for the Immersion Retreat.

We ran into one of our "hometown favs," Alice Heinzen, who spoke to us about the importance of human dignity. Jeremy Stanbary of Epiphany Productions performed his one man play Alessandro & later spoke to the youth. We danced (jumped?) and sang along with Traditional Division and basked in some prayerful silence during Mass, Adoration & Reconciliation.

And of course - there was plenty of time for Waterpark fun.

We had a great group of 8th-12th graders from St. Joe's, Elk Mound, Eau Claire & even Eleva :) Thanks to Chris Rogers & Jen Mickschl for all of the work you put into making this a great experience for our youth, and thank you to the youth for making it a spectacular weekend for Pam & I :)
