FRESHMAN RETREAT
Theme: Encounter
Have you encountered the living God? Have you experienced the love of Jesus? Have you felt the power of the Holy Spirit? This overnight retreat will give students the opportunity to encounter God, who is real and present in their lives. We journey with students while seeking answers to some of life’s most important questions: “Who is God?” and “Who am I?” There will be games, talks, music, reconciliation, adoration, mass, prayer, and a whole lot fun along the way.
This retreat includes a ropes course, team building activities, inspiring talks, student testimonies, small group time, confession, adoration and Mass.
Freshman Retreat Date(s):
October 24 - 25, 2019
The retreat is held at the Lazy W Ranch in San Juan Capistrano. Forms are due one month prior to retreat dates, but remember don't wait until the due date. These retreats will fill up fast. We take the first 40 students and then start a wait list.
