Attending a retreat each year is a part of our school’s culture. A Retreat is not an escape from our everyday routine and responsibilities, but a moment of re-energizing ourselves and reconnecting with what matters most to us.
Our hope is that each student at Ursuline College takes away the four benefits of a retreat and incorporates them into their everyday life. The model we follow during a retreat is: Sabbath (giving the gift of our mind/ body/ spirit rest), Solitude (stepping away from distractions), Silence (learning to listen to God), and Simplicity (reminding ourselves that we do not need a certain thing, titles, or look to be joyful).
