Pilgrimage to the Shrine of St. Carlo Acutis

The Catholic Church recently canonized its first millennial saint—Carlo Acutis—in October of 2025! In 2023, Bishop O'Connell designated him a patron for youth and young people and for Catholic schools in the Diocese of Trenton. He has been a wonderful model of how to be a faithful young Catholic in the modern age. 

For 7th-grade students or 8th-grade students who did not have the opportunity to attend the DYC for your Confirmation Retreat, we have organized a unique chance to visit the Shrine of St. Carlo Acutis at St. Dominic Church in Brick on March 14. 

7th Grade: This experience is in place of your third/final SPY 4:12 meeting for 2025-2026. 
8th Grade: This will fulfill your retreat obligation for Confirmation if you missed DYC.

The day will include: 
Transportation details will be forthcoming, but we will need to know how many people plan to attend as soon as possible. Please register here.
