In this Catholic faith-formation retreat we look at in a world that constantly pushes the idea of chasing happiness, fame, and comfort, the Church offers a different message: You were made for more. You were created for greatness, to live boldly in your faith, and to push beyond your comfort zone to become who God calls you to be.

​

But do you truly understand how great you are in God’s eyes? On this retreat, you’ll be invited to reflect on your identity—your true, everlasting identity as a child of God.

You’ll also dive deep into your authentic personality traits, recognizing both your strengths and the challenges you face, all while walking the path of faith.

​

This retreat will give you the chance to look back on the last few years of your life and consider where God has been at work.

How do you want to grow in the future?

How can you strive for greatness, not as the world defines it, but as God envisions it for you?

​

Come ready to be inspired, challenged, and transformed as we explore what it means to live a life of true greatness in Christ.

This Catholic faith-formation retreat invites students to explore the personal filters they use to navigate their relationships, emphasizing the importance of connections with themselves, their friends, their families, and God. They will reflect on how these filters—shaped by life experiences and fears—can both protect their hearts and sometimes prevent deeper, more authentic connections with others and with God.

​

Additionally, students will explore the dynamics of their relationships by considering how they relate to others and how those connections can be strengthened. This part of the retreat will encourage them to recognize the importance of nurturing their bonds with loved ones and how those relationships enrich their spiritual lives.
