Re: Retreat Director for High School ages.

Carrie Ford led a successful retreat for H. S. Juniors, held at Christ the King Seminary for a period of four hours. During that time the participants were presented with material particularly relevant to their daily lives as well as the future. Discussions were open, examples given from participants lives as well as the experiences of Mrs. Ford and current events. Role play, music and prayer were incorporated into a session that was both informative, joyful and prayerful.

Students were comfortable with Mrs. Ford which encouraged them to participate in varied ways. All were involved in the activities presented and the theme chosen for the day was carried out in a variety of ways. Incorporating music into the day appealed to the students and contributed greatly to the mood of the day. There was an energy present, the spirit of prayer felt and a presentation which was most timely.

I give the highest recommendation to Mrs. Ford and would encourage all who avail themselves of her services to sit back and enjoy, you will be well pleased with her accomplishments, the retreat will go well, and participants will benefit from her direction. Mrs. Ford has a gift: an ability to communicate her own love and life with Jesus and is able to make that love visible to the students, as an example they rarely get to see.

Her preparation is complete, opportunities given for responses, and an evaluation following the retreat.

Sincerely

Carol Healy
