A Call to Perfection
“Be perfect, therefore, as your heavenly Father is perfect.” – Matthew 5:48
This retreat will be a chance to get away from the bustle of daily life, reconnect with our Lord and deepen our relationship with Him through Mass, talks, Liturgy of the hours, silence, adoration and confession. There'll also be time to relax, catch up with friends and get to know young Catholics from other universities.
Over a series of talks at the retreat, we will explore the Christian call to perfection.
