Typically, students arrive at 9:30 am and leave at 2:30 pm. Each retreat begins with a snack of baked goods and juice, hot chocolate, and recreation in the Games Room. Students and staff will be served a hot meal at lunch time. It is our goal to include a liturgy or para-liturgy into the day as circumstances permit.
*Each retreat may be different, and activities are chosen depending upon
the individual groups as they present themselves. It is important to strive to reach our end goals through activities that will be productive and positive and that each student comes away with a strengthened relationship with God.
