Walker Percy, a Catholic American author, wrote, “To become aware of the possibility of a search is to be onto something. Not to be onto something is to be in despair.” Most of us are aware that we are onto something because we have hope and find ourselves desiring and asking questions about love, happiness, and purpose. But in a culture that gives us conflicting answers, we may find ourselves lost. It is the Gospel message which personally guides our search for truth.
God created each of us intentionally, out of love, and for a purpose. Our hearts search for God and will not be content until united with Him. During this retreat, we will embark on the search for God together. It is easy to look to Google for answers, but only God reaches into our lives and gives us a personal response.
GROWING YOUNG
This retreat aims to help teenagers acknowledge the ways they succumb to pride and try to carry more responsibility than necessary. They are encouraged to prayerfully examine these areas and surrender in trust, reclaiming their role as sons or daughters of God by embracing childlike dependence on Him.
AWAKENING
In a world of daily distractions competing for our attention, it can be challenging to distinguish Jesus’ voice from the many voices that tell us what to wear, what to listen to, what to watch, and even who to be. This retreat series will remind youth to follow Jesus the Good Shepherd by listening to His voice. Jesus’ voice is one of love, compassion, and peace. He offers us love and is the only one who can truly satisfy the human heart. When we hear the Good Shepherd’s voice, we can follow Him and know how to take the right action.
“Awakening” inspires middle school youth to shift from attempting to be the center of their own story to allowing Jesus to be their leader and guide. We need the Good Shepherd to guide us as our lives take different twists and turns. This retreat will not only allow youth to embrace Jesus as their shepherd, but also their local Church community, and recognize the value of belonging to God’s flock.
