Retreat Information

Freshman Escape Retreat: September 7 / 8
As you begin your college career you are being bombarded by all sorts of stuff. At the same time you are aware that your spiritual life, your relationship with Christ, is vital to maintain. We invite you as you begin your time at IU to take some time and let God have some room as you begin this new adventure. The retreat begins late Friday afternoon September 7 and goes through the evening of September 8. Contact the parish office for further information (339-5561) or e-mail Fr. Stan at frstan@hoosiercatholic.org.

Kairos 18 Retreat: October 12 – 14
KAIROS is a Greek word for time; as chronos refers to human time, KAIROS is all about God’s time. It is a period of time characterized by good fortune, urgency, and favorable opportunity. A KAIROS moment is typically one of short duration which must be seized or it will be lost.

The KAIROS Retreat is a time during which you can focus yourself on your relationship with God AND provide God with the same opportunity. We invite you to join us for a mid-October autumn weekend of prayer and sharing at the beautiful Bradford Woods retreat center. Departure is set for 3 p.m. Sunday afternoon and we will return Sunday evening. The total cost for the retreat is $90 (ask about scholarships). Application forms will be available at St. Paul Catholic Center after all the Masses beginning the weekend of September 1 / 2.

Movie Retreat: November 30 – December 2
Can you believe that a retreat can be developed around the discussion of mainstream movies? If you can believe it, nothing more need be said. If you cannot believe it, the only way for you to get it is to experience it. Over the course of the weekend we will view 4 very different films. We will also pray together, eat together, and play together. Since it is getting close to the end of the semester there will be big blocks of time for you to study if you would like (or need). The retreat begins Friday evening and will end by noon on Sunday (and will include Sunday Mass). The cost is 35.00 for the weekend. Applications will be available come mid-October.
