About this Event

Youth are invited to Arise! We are all called to be missionary disciples of Jesus Christ and it is time for the youth to be empowered to go out, share their faith and learn more about who God has called them to be. 

This 5 day, overnight retreat for is those born in 2008 and 2009 (Youth entering Grade 9 /10 in September 2023). By combining practical skills, a faith perspective and spiritual development, participants learn and grow in their faith through engaging activities (including outdoor recreation activities), presentations, games, skits, reflection, sharing and the opportunity to interact with each other in a faith-filled, safe environment. We will explore the question of: “Who am I as a child of God and what is my call to holiness in my family, with my friends, in my parish community and at large?”

The retreat team, made up of young adults and older youth, are excited to inspire the youth to continue on their faith journey in relationship with Jesus Christ.

This retreat takes place at Camp Jubilee in North Vancouver. All participants must be accompanied by adult leaders (ages 19+). The minimum ratio of adult leaders to youth is 1:8.
