Small Groups...Get Connected!
A wonderful way to meet people, grow deeper in your faith, and recieve support in living healthy and faith-filled lives is to get connected to a small group. Small groups are made up of 6-12 students and typically gather about every other week. Gatherings are a balance of socializing, prayer, learning about/discussing our faith and participating in community service projects together.
Student Retreats
Fall Overnight Retreat- 24/25 September
This retreat includes ice breakers and games wich will help connect you with other Catholic students; discussion on the joys and challenges of college life; and guided prayer and reflection which will help give you focus and direction as you head into a new year.
Busy Student Retreat- 7-10 November
The purpose of this retreat is to give students the ability to squeeze in some reflection, prayer and spiritual direction within their busy lives. During the retreat students meet each day for about 45 minutes with an adult mentor, and gather in the evening with others for a common meal and prayer time.
