Senior Retreat - Christian Awakening
The senior Christian Awakening retreat is a three and one-half day extended retreat experience
that allows seniors to reflect deeply on their relationship with themselves, other people, and with
God. In every sense it is the spiritual highlight of their four years at BCHS and the goal to which
all the previous retreats have been directed. The details of the retreat are kept confidential so as to
maximize the experience for each senior, but it is a truly significant point in the lives of these
young men and women.
There are multiple retreats scheduled throughout the course of the year to accommodate the busy
schedules of athletes and students involved in other extracurricular activities. It is a truly
worthwhile experience, and all seniors should take advantage of the opportunity to attend if they
feel comfortable.
The school helps subsidize the overall cost of this retreat and the other class retreats, but because
this retreat involves more extensive room and board costs for the four days, a fee of $200 is
charged. Because this retreat is so important, we do not want anyone to miss the opportunity of
participating because of finance. If a parent needs help with the cost,
please contact Mr. Tyler
Mayer, BCHS director of campus ministry. Your request will be
held in strict confidence.
Senior retreats begin on Tuesday at 5:15 p.m. and end on Friday at 5:00 p.m. Retreats are held at Our Lady of Fatima Retreat House.
The students are not allowed to drive themselves to the retreat.
