Jesus said to them, “I am the bread of life; whoever comes to me will never hunger, and whoever believes in me will never thirst.”
Juan 6:35
The students from 3rd to 6th year Secondary have a yearly retreat, an opportunity to share and connect with their classmates, with themselves, others and with God. It is not only a moment to unite the group, but also to look and search inside themselves to see how they are dealing with the different personal areas of their lives.
- 3rd year SS: first one day retreat experience with classmates, where they exchange and share personal experiences and they look deeper into their faith. It takes place in Monsignor Aguirre Retreat Center.
- 4th year SS: without the everyday distractions of the daily routine and without social media, it is a moment to think with the heart, to be aware of emotions and personal feelings. A real encounter of two days with classmates and with oneself. Moments to share and to listen amongst friends and also with fathers.
- 5th year SS: Spiritual Cenacle, an almost three days’ retreat with great impact which takes place in Casa de Maria in Lujan. Organized activities which invite each student to find himself in a secure and trustworthy environment to express themselves freely.
- 6th year SS: Cenacle re-encounter, last retreat of their time at school. Also a three days’ retreat in Lujan. They do activities centered in their relationships with friends and peers.
“ I think the Cenacle was an incredible experience with 29 companions with which we ended up being friends. A moment to reflect and to get to know oneself from a spiritual point of view. Through the activities I was able to value friendship and my parents. After the cenacle, we were able to find friendly ties that united the group. The good vibes of the coordinators helped us to take it seriously and to enjoy it.”
