撤退

Bishop Blanchet students participate in a four year retreat program rooted in the eight Gospel Values: Community, 希望, 爱, 怜悯, 勇气, 门徒, 正义与谦卑.

The retreats invite students to personally connect with our Catholic tradition through prayer and faith-sharing. Many retreats include a component of service to emphasize our responsibility to live in service to, 为了团结一致, all human beings - particularly the most marginalized. Our retreats give students the opportunity to come together as a community, reflect on their beliefs and grow as spiritual beings.
