The comments below are from former young adult retreats. These comments can give you an idea of the content and structure of our annual retreat. Single and married, Hispanic and Anglo, male and female, college
students and parish young adults all come to this retreat. We even have had babies! What
a wonderful mix!
"It is so wonderful to be able to get together with
other people of the same age and talk about God. It strengthened my faith
and helped me to get closer to God."
"This was my first retreat and it was awesome! I
will be back!"
"God really touched my life through the messages and
especially through the Bishop. I felt very welcome and loved even though
I am not Catholic."
"This was my first retreat and I wasn't sure what to
expect. You have far exceeded anything I imagined it would be."
