Listen to our 360 inspired playlist for a taste of the retreat:

Unwritten

What's your favorite story?  That movie you could watch over and over again.  The book from childhood that's falling apart from repeated reads.  The song you listen to every day cause the lyrics are just too good.  What about you?  What's your story? 

We are all made up of stories – the stories we love and the stories we live.  Unwritten is a retreat focused on this theme of personal story.  It invites students to consider the story they have been writing in their life so far and helps them think about how they might more intentionally write their story moving forward. Our hope is that students walk away with a better understanding of themselves, their place in the world, and the life stories they are in the process of authoring. 

On retreat, students will practice journaling, reflection, and Ignatian discernment and explore topics like wisdom figures, personal strengths, and vocation.  The weekend will include talks from student leaders, panels from our lovely staff members, small group time with peers, individual reflection, and lots of story-themed activities – while having a lot of fun along the way! 

Cost: $50 (includes all meals, snacks, transportation, lodging, etc.)
