Retreat Opportunities
Retreats are an important part of any persons faith life, but especially
during one’s teenage years as students face more and more pressures from
school, work and extracurricular activities. A retreat is an opportunity to
get away, pray, reflect, and grow closer in your  relationship with Jesus.

Retreats/days/evenings of reflection requirement: Middle school (7 & 8)
and high school (9 & 10) will each have the requirement to attend at least
one retreat/reflection during the two-year period. These will be offered
several times during the year – students need only to attend one in the two
year cycle. Students will also have the option of attending Archdiocesan
and district events to fulfill this requirement.

All Confirmation candidates are required to attend a retreat as part of
their preparation to receive the sacrament as per Archdiocesan guidelines.
These retreats are usually held in spring with the other candidates from
the parish.
