Father God, we commit this youth retreat to you. Thank you for each and everyone of the participants and the facilitators. Please be preparing their hearts and minds for what they are going to hear and experience over this weekend. Bless each and everyone, may they get to know and love you better, or even get to know you for the first time and make that first step of faith. Watch over them and keep them safe as they travel and take part in activities. Give Juan and the other facilitators the words to say. Help the participants and facilitators to remember and put into practice what they learn over this weekend over the coming weeks and months. As you bless them this weekend, may they bless their friends and families as they return home next week. In Jesus’ name, amen.
