Overview

Retreats
View upcoming Freshman, Sophomore, Junior, and Kairos Retreats

Retreats are opportunities to cultivate both deeper self-affirmation and acceptance of God’s unconditional love. Freshmen have big brothers as guides and mentors. The school year starts with the  Freshman Retreat. The Sophomore and Junior retreats are organized through Theology class. During the first semester, overnight Junior Retreats take place. Sophomore days of reflection take place during the second semester.  Because of the tested value of peer ministry, these retreats are led by trained Seniors who are part of the Big Brother Program and the Senior Retreat Team. Kairos is a four-day Senior Retreat. Sophomore and Junior Retreats are held at Christ the King Retreat Center and Kairos Retreats are held at Our Lady of the Sierras Retreat Center in Applegate, California.

About the Retreat

Incoming Freshman families, save the date! Be on the lookout for an RSVP link that will be coming soon! The Freshmen Overnight Retreat will be August 24-25, 2024! This kick-off to your son’s four years at Jesuit is a highlight of Freshman year. Your son will spend the retreat with his upperclassman Big Brother, who will serve as a guide and mentor for your son as he begins his journey at Jesuit. Our newest marauders will be welcomed into the brotherhood, build camaraderie with their new classmates, and learn about campus life at Jesuit. Because the experience of the Freshman Retreat is so important for new students, participation in the entire retreat is MANDATORY for all Freshmen.

I am a Junior, why should I go on Junior Kairos?

Kairos is your time to be with yourself, God, and peers for three nights and four days as you transition from Junior year into your role as a Senior at Jesuit High School.
