  • Grade 6 Day of Recollection: Light of Christ

    Just so, your light must shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your heavenly Father. —Matthew 5:16

    Sixth graders are introduced to the qualities of Jesus that we are called to share with others in building community.
  • Grade 7 Day of Recollection: Gifts

    God created mankind in his image; in the image of God he created them; male and female* he created them. —Genesis 1:27

    Seventh graders spend the day uncovering their God-given gifts. It is a time to realize and acknowledge the blessing and uniqueness of our lives.
  • Grade 8 AGAPE Retreat

    They devoted themselves to the teaching of the Apostles and to communal life, to the breaking of the bread and to the prayers. They ate their meals together with exultation and sincerity of heart, praising God and enjoying favor with all the people. And every day the Lord added to their number those who were being saved. Acts 2:42, 46-47

    With Christ at the center of this community, high school students attend a 3 day weekend retreat in preparation to facilitate a peer mentored grade 8 retreat. The Almighty God and People Encounter (AGAPE) focuses on communal life with Jesus at the head of every community. Beginning with the smallest community in society, the family, students discover their responsibilities as Christians in every aspect of life. Once discovered, students are then encouraged to make worthy moral and ethical contributions to every community they are involved with.
  • Freshman Day of Recollection: New Beginnings

    Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, before you were born I dedicated you, a prophet to the nations I appointed you. —Jeremiah 1:5

    And the king will say to them in reply, ‘Amen, I say to you, whatever you did for one of these least brothers of mine, you did for me.’ —Matthew 25:40

  • Senior Day of Recollection: Transitions

    When I was a child, I used to talk as a child, think as a child, reason as a child; when I became a man, I put aside childish things. —1 Corinthians 13:11

  • KAIROS Retreat for Juniors and Seniors*

    KAIROS. An awakening; special moment.

    The KAIROS Retreat allows seniors to unfold the value of Christian faith as it is lived and experienced in community. It gives them an opportunity to look within themselves and find their true worth. They will observe how this worth is reinforced in their relationships with God, their parents and their neighbors.
