Faith

Retreats

Retreats are one of the unique experiences available to students in Catholic schools which provide students with time for self-reflection, opportunities to build relationships with classmates, and an invitation to explore their relationship with God. Attendance is optional, but highly encouraged. Going on retreat is considered an excused absence and does not count against a student’s overall totals.

To further support students on their faith journey, Bishop Gorman Campus Ministry offers a variety of retreats throughout the year, each unique in its focus:

Quest Retreat

Faith is a journey! Freshmen and Sophomore students are invited to this overnight retreat where they will encounter Jesus by learning more about themselves and the role that love plays in their relationships with others and with God.

Kairos Retreat

KAIROS is a four-day transformative retreat experience that is available to Junior and Senior students. Led by students and guided by adults, KAIROS aims to foster self-awareness and deepen relationships with family, friends, and God. More often than not, students return from retreat using words like inspirational and empowering to describe their time away.

Senior Retreat

As their time at Bishop Gorman comes to a close, Campus Ministry invites the Senior Class to participate in a three-day retreat focused on celebrating their journey, reflecting on their growth, and preparing for the exciting opportunities ahead. Students will be encouraged to trust in God’s plan for what comes next and to walk forward in faith, hope, and love.

Once they have completed a retreat, students wishing to deepen their faith are invited to apply to serve as leaders on future retreats.

Any interested students should reach out to Mrs. Mizzoni in the Campus Ministry office or by email at mmizzoni@bishopgorman.org for more information.
