"I wish I could lose myself and never find myself except in God!" - St. John Vianney
Catholic Gators offers several retreats for students as an opportunity to escape the distractions of college life and grow deeper in their faith and love of God.
Alpha is a three-day weekend retreat which takes place once each semester. It is a chance to spend some time away from the craziness of college life and get to know more about yourself, deepen your relationship with God, and learn more about the awesome student community here at St. Augustine's. Contact any member of Campus Ministry, FOCUS, or E-Board to learn more.
"F.I.R.E."stands for Faith In Receiving the Eucharist, and as the name suggests, this is a once-yearly Eucharistic-centered weekend free from life’s distractions designed for you to personally encounter Jesus and grow in your intimacy with God.
Our prayer is that you will come to better understand why this Eucharist is the Source and Summit of our Christian faith, and that you will experience true unity with your brothers and sisters in Christ.
The Handmaids of the Lord Women's Day Retreat is an annual event in the Fall where the women of our community come together for prayer, fellowship, and reflection. Hear talks by great speakers, meet a beautiful group of women striving to build each other up, and spend time in silent reflection marveling at God's creation.
