As repeatedly stated throughout the Confirmation program, attendance to Super Saturdays is mandatory. We realize that sometimes an illness or pressing issue comes up where a student has to miss a session. In such cases, students are to complete and submit make up work.

DIRECTIONS: Students who missed a Super Saturday are to listen to the talks and do the Journal reflections for the Super Saturday that they missed. Journal reflections are then to be submitted to Angela via email at angela@strcp.com.
