2024 Fall Student Retreat

September 21, 2024

Fall and Spring Student Retreats

Each year we have Fall and Spring Student Retreats. These offer students an escape from the busyness of campus life and an opportunity get to know some other Catholic (or seeking) students. Students participate in both guided and self-directed spiritual activities, and generally get to spend time growing deeper in holiness, peace, and joy. The retreats are subsidized by the parish with the aim that no one is left out for lack of funds. We have are a few scholarships available to those for whom the subsidized fee is too great.

When students think back on their time in college, one of the most common reflections is how powerful retreats were for them - in building lifelong friendships, developing a deeper and more mature sense of faith, growing as a person, and simply having a great time. Be sure not to miss out on these grace-filled moments.

Twilight Retreats

Throughout the year, we host twilight retreat for the members of the various classes. These are typically held Friday nights from 6pm to 11pm. Each twilight retreat focuses on the spiritual and life challenges (and opportunities) particular to students at that stage of their college experience.

We begin the year with a New Student Twilight Retreat for freshman and new transfer students to help them adjust to life at Cal and develop healthy spiritual practices. This is typically held the Friday after Labor Day. Then later in the Fall semester we offer a Sophomore Twilight Retreat. In the Spring semester, we’ll have a Junior Twilight Retreat and conclude the year with a Senior and Graduating Student Twlight Retreat.
