Salt & Light Retreat

November 8-10, 2024

Open to both undergraduate and graduate students, the Salt and Light retreat explores the variety of ways we can express our worship, praise, and reverence of God through Word and Sacrament. Through student talks, reflection, and communal engagement with these devotions, we will explore this aspect of our faith. You’ll also have the opportunity to explore and reflect in small group discussions on faith sharing. 

Registration for the Salt & Light retreat is closed. If you would like to be on the waitlist, email Pablo (most people who are on the waitlist end up being able to attend).

Student Testimonials

  • Because of this retreat, I am going to have daily prayer be a priority again and start doing the Divine mercy chaplet. I am going to be more intentional with praying for others too.
  • I have not been in Adoration for a very long time, it was great to have that time with God again and it was indeed my favorite part of the retreat.
  • I really liked the teaching mass. I had great conversations, a nice walk and played some piano too.
