🥾 M.U.D., the 2024 YMA Spring Retreat, will reflect on the Latin phrase Memento Ut Dignus (or, Remember that you are worthy). We will begin by reflecting on our individual dignity and then move further beyond ourselves to appreciate the dignity of one another. We will learn we are all sisters and brothers in Christ.
⛪ What is a retreat? A retreat is an opportunity (often multiple days long and overnight) to remove yourself from daily life to spend time with Jesus. While it’s also a great opportunity to meet new people and connect with others, it’s primarily a chance to deepen your faith by spending time in the beautiful world God created and making space and silence for Him to speak. Jesus himself retreated many times and religious retreats are a chance for us to walk in his footsteps in this way. In short, a retreat is giving yourself the opportunity to have an encounter with Christ.
🛌 This is an overnight retreat for young adults in their 20s and 30s, so retreatants should plan to come to Serra at 6 p.m. on Friday, May 3, and be there until we conclude at 12:30 p.m. on Sunday, May 5.
