Retreats

Retreats at St. John's Jesuit are an integral part of the educational experience. St. Ignatius of Loyola, who founded the Society of Jesus (Jesuits), encourages us to "find God in all things." The St. John's Jesuit retreat program helps each student to do that as students take time away from school for prayer, liturgies, and group discussions. In the spirit of Ignatius, the St. John's Jesuit retreat program is based on the need we have: to come to know God, to come to find God in all, to come to a greater awareness of God's actions in our lives, to come to discern God's will in our lives.

Each year, every student at St. John's Jesuit makes a retreat; the retreats each year build upon one another. Click on the links below to see the retreats in greater detail.
