High School Marello Ministry

Every Tuesday the doors to Marello Youth Retreat Center are opened for any high schoolers that want to come and spend time in community, prayer, and formation (6:30-8:00). This is also the opportunity for any adults that are interested in ministry to come and help out! Ministering to the high schoolers on a weekly basis and helping plan retreats.

Young Adult Marello Ministry

Every Wednesday young adults are invited to gather for a holy hour (6:00-7:00) at the chapel up at the Mount and then for community afterward (7:30-9:00). Our time in community will sometimes be planned activities and at other times will be intentionally unstructured. Sometimes all you need is some tea, a fire, and a good conversation ya know?

Marello Youth Retreat Center was established so the Oblates of Saint Joseph of the Holy Spouses Province could serve the greater community primarily through hosting retreat groups. Plenty of Parishes hold their own retreats on our facility throughout the year. In addition, we also like to offer a few things of our own making! The Marello Ministry group (both a high school group and a young adult group), our retreats, events, and fundraisers are all ways that we seek to evangelize and grow in community. Some of these things are already well established in the greater community and others are only just beginning. Regardless, all of our ministries are pursued with a hope and fire, and are under the constant watch and intercession of Saint Joseph Marello.

Throughout the year we hold different activities focused on different demographics. Twice a year we have high school retreats and at the beginning of every year we hold a young adult retreat. We also put on leadership retreats, host fundraisers (like the SJM Pancake Breakfast), and at times help to advertise diocesan events. It is our hope to soon establish a middle school retreat, as well as a HS seniors retreat, and a Bar Trivia Night! All of these things for the sake of serving our community and getting the word out about our great facility! We hope you can join, support, and/or help spread the word about these different activities throughout the year.
