Register Now For 2020 Diocesan Virtual Altar Boy Retreat

Wednesday, May 27, 2020

JOHNSTOWN, PA - Plans are underway for the Annual Altar Boy Retreat which will take place from Monday evening, June 29th until Wednesday, July 1st, 2020. As we are all aware, the Covid-19 pandemic has brought about many changes to the things that we are used to. The Altar Boy Retreat is one of those. The Retreat will be virtual this year, on Facebook and Zoom and perhaps other platforms. However, this is the still a time for our faithful Altar Servers to join other Altar Boys from all over our Diocese for fun and fellowship.

All parishes of the Diocese are urged to underwrite the reduced participation fee of $30.00 for their Altar Servers, recognizing that the Altar Boy of today may very well be the priest of tomorrow! Those parishes which pay the registration fees for their altar boys are asked to PAY ONLINE OR SUBMIT THEIR CHECK BY THE DEADLINE - JUNE 19TH.

All checks should be made payable to “DIOCESAN ALTAR BOY RETREAT” and sent to Fr. David Cochran. Forms needing to be filled out will be sent to each home in a packet of things to use for the ABR. Electronic Registration and payment must be made no later than Friday, June 19th. Registrations not received or paid for by then cannot be guaranteed a t-shirt.
