SALT LAKE CITY – A recent youth retreat organized by the Corazon de Maria prayer group at Our Lady of Guadalupe Parish gave young people age 15 and older four days over two weekends to focus on God.
“The retreat was most needed,” said Jose Fernandez, coordinator of the retreat, referring to the fact that due to the restrictions imposed by the COVID -19 pandemic, in-person gatherings were banned for almost a year.
