On this retreat we will take time to consider the following...

• Eyes on the Horizon: Why is Mary our Queen of Hope?

• Morning by Morning: What does the Annunciation reveal to us about hope?

• Golden Hour: Mary kept all things in her heart…

• Mary & Jesus: Our greatest examples…

• Darkest Before Dawn: What does Mary at the foot of the Cross teach us about hope?

• First Light: Seeking the light of Christ through Mary our Mother…

Amidst considering Mary our Queen of Hope, we will take time for prayer, as a group and individually. All for the sake of growing in relationship with God.

It is important that we take time to separate from the opposite sex and connect with one another as men and as women. On this retreat, we will take a moment to consider what Mary can reveal to us specifically as men and as women.

As brothers and sisters in Christ one way we can build each other up is through challenging and supporting one another. On this retreat we will take time for small group discussion to work towards that goal.

No retreat is complete without time for games! High energy, competitive, and sometimes strange. It'll be tons of fun!
