The retreat invites teens to rediscover the joy of the Lord. We explore how joy drastically differs from happiness, what it means to be joyful in moments of suffering, and the many ways Christ and the Church invite us to experience deep, lasting joy. This retreat encourages teens to set aside the short-lived pleasures they are bombarded with each day and instead seek out what good things God has in store for us when we learn to joyfully trust in Him. The goal of Focal Point is for teens to understand that encountering Jesus will fill them with lasting joy, allowing them to share the Good News of Christ with others.
