Retreats and Vocation
Opportunities for time to reflect, pray, and build community are an important aspect of the College Community. The Mission and Ministry Center is committed to the development of a yearly retreat series that includes retreats such as the annual fall New Student Retreat, a Senior Retreat, Meditation Retreat, and other thematic retreats. Attentive to the call by God that each of us has been given, opportunities to reflect, pray, and discuss our God’s presence and call in our lives happen through opportunities for discernment, prayer and discussion groups. The consideration of post-graduate volunteer opportunities, such as the Lasallian Volunteer Program, is a viable possibility for many students.

We All Have a Vocation
Are you looking for a place to gather for prayer, discussion, and discernment? Are you asking yourself, “What am I going to do after I graduate?” or “What are my gifts and talents and how do I use or share these for/with others?” Gather with other students for discussion and conversation after the 8:00pm Mass on Sundays. Students gather in the Chapel for about 30 minutes after Mass, and all are welcome.
