Good afternoon, young adults.
I pray this e-news finds you enjoying this beautiful warm summer weather!
There are several young adult events coming up this summer that we are excited to share with you! Please check out the list below and reach out to me if you have any questions!
CHECK OUT THESE UPCOMING Events:
Come away from the noise of the world for a three or eight day silent retreat to learn more about how God talks to you through the Scriptures and in the movement of your own heart. Learn the rules of Ignatian discernment, encounter Jesus in the message He has for you through the Scriptures, and understand who and whose you are as a son or daughter of God. Expect daily talks, time for silent and guided prayer, opportunities for Mass, confession and meetings with spiritual directors. For those attending the full eight day retreat, you will begin journeying with Jesus through some of the Spiritual Exercises of St.Ignatius of Loyola.
Go on a weekend adventure with Catholic young adults from all over Michigan being drawn deeper into the heart of Jesus.

Young Adult Pilgrimages

The popular culture seems hell-bent on the absolute destruction of the family. As the Church, our job is to live our lives of holiness and truth.
Following in the example of that giant of a man and great saint, Pope Saint John Paul II, venture with us through the breathtaking mountains and basilicas where the beginnings of Pope Saint John Paul’s momentous Theology of the Body was born.
This combination outdoor retreat and pilgrimage for postgraduate young adults is filled with deep prayer, beautiful adventure, authentic fellowship, and an in-depth seminar by a PhD specialist on Theology of the Body: a scripture-based vision of human dignity, sexuality & the vocation to love.
Cost: $1,650 USD if you apply by March 31, 2022
