    • DIOCESAN YOUTH RETREAT

      Verso l'Alto: Into the Heights

      May 20-22, 2022
      Anna Maria College

    • Mark your calendars for May 20-22, 2022 as the Diocesan Youth Ministry Office will be offering a weekend youth retreat at Anna Maria College! The retreat will be open to all high school youth as well as current 8th graders!

      The theme for the retreat is Verso l'Alto (Into the Heights). The theme is based on the motto of Blessed Pier Giorgio Frassati. The retreat will aim to capture this motto as we journey into the heights through fun & games (with prizes!), music, guest speakers, breakout sessions, and ultimately to the spiritual heights of an encounter with Christ in the Sacraments through Eucharistic Adoration, confession, and Mass! The retreat will start Friday evening and will conclude Sunday morning. A complete and detailed schedule will be available soon.
