A group of 30 students recently returned from a wonderful spiritual retreat to The Briars Catholic Youth Retreat Centre, focusing on the theme of Connections.
Students participated in a variety of activities to deepen their relationships and faith. Highlights included engaging team-building exercises, meaningful small-group reflections, and diverse variations of prayer, including reflective Night Prayer.
The group also enjoyed bonding activities, such as watching Home Alone, and a heartfelt session where students wrote affirmations to each other, celebrating their gifts.
The retreat concluded beautifully with Mass on the final day. Our students showed great spirit and enthusiasm throughout, and we trust they will carry the strength of these new connections forward.
