This year, NET (National Evangelization Teams) held a retreat for Union County high schoolers during Holy Week and the Sacred Triduum.

The retreat, which was given by 12 visiting NET missionaries, was open to the youth of Union County’s six parishes. A total of twenty-nine teens attended, which included Catholic and non-Catholic young people.

The NET missionaries arrived on April 1 and departed on Easter Monday, April 6.
