High School Retreats
Abundant Life Retreat
As they mature, young people wrestle more and more with the big questions of life: “What will make me happy? How will I live my life? Is God real? Does He care about me? Do I really believe what the Church teaches?” The goal of the Abundant Life retreat is to meet students at this critical point, to help them explore those questions with a philosophical approach, and invite them to discover for themselves the answer in Jesus: the Way, the Truth, and the Life.
Throughout the retreat, students are introduced to the foundations of the Christian life: Identity, prayer, mission, and community. Meanwhile, a series of competitions challenges them to discover the joy and adventure of the Christian life while growing in community with their classmates
Made for More Retreat
Faith is not just a matter of information, it’s an encounter with the person of Jesus and life in the Holy Spirit. This retreat prepares students to live a life on mission in the freedom of their identity as children of God. This retreat is ideal for upperclassmen or as a “next step” experience.
