Past PACT Participant Testimonials:

"I think the PACT program is an amazing program. So many times, for whatever reason, Confirmation is not made.
The ability to make it in such an amazing way as an adult is a wonderful thing to me.
I truly feel as an adult, that this process has meant more to me and that I have grown through it."


"After the first meeting, I was surprised at how interesting everything was. I felt very welcome and part of the group.
I feel sad that the session is ending, but joyful about what I have learned and how I can use it in my life."


"Having a group of peers all wanting to grow and build on our spiritual lives together
has been a true blessing and I will be sad to see it end."
