The 2026 Spring Clergy Conference takes place May 11-13 at Lindenwood Retreat and Conference Center. The focus will be on E-Connect.

Ministry can be tough, and let’s be honest—sometimes it feels like you’re figuring it out alone. That’s where E-Connect comes in. We walk alongside faith leaders and ministry teams, helping them listen deeply—to God, to each other, and to the communities they serve—so they can take their next faithful step with confidence. Whether you’re navigating change, revitalizing your church, or discerning a new mission, we provide the coaching, support, and tools to help you move forward. Ministry isn’t meant to be a solo journey—let’s do this together.

Parochial Clergy - It is the expectation that parochial clergy attend the Spring Clergy Conference. If you are unable to attend, please complete this Google Form. Thank you.

The Spring Youth Retreat for the Diocese of Northern Indiana is for all youth in the diocese in 6th – 12th grade.

This is a busy time of year when students are preparing for the end of the school year, finals and getting ready for what their summer holds.  The purpose for this retreat will be to gather for some spiritual reflection, relax, and hang out with friends. 

On Saturday, we will continue our new tradition by bringing the outdoor furniture up from the basement and preparing the outside of the building and grounds for the summer. 

Pizza will be provided on Friday night.  We are asking parents to pick up their youth on Sunday, at 11 a.m.

Please note that the medical form has changed and it will now cover the full year for retreats held at the Wawasee Center.  Please go to the registration link, fill out the registration form and then fill out the medical forms with medications form. These forms are through Air Table, a new format that is all digital, so we have the ability to save them and use them for the entire year.

Reminder, you will need to bring:

  • modest pajamas

  • casual clothing for Saturday; we will be bringing up outdoor furniture

  • warm clothing if you would like to go outside; it may still be chilly.

  • toiletries, towel, and wash cloth

  • sleeping bag

  • pillow

  • a snack to share

Looking forward to seeing you in a couple of weeks! If you have any questions, contact Carol Bianchini at 574-551-3087 send her an email.
