High School Retreats

Give Your Students a Weekend to Encounter Christ

This winter, invite your high school students to step away from the noise of everyday life and spend a weekend encountering Christ, building authentic Catholic community, and discovering more deeply what it means to live as a beloved son or daughter of God.

We are excited to offer two retreat experiences:

Legacy | High School Men’s Retreat
Legacy challenges young men to embrace the legacy God is calling them to with purpose and courage as beloved sons of God.

Magnify | High School Women’s Retreat
Magnify invites young women to discover their identity and dignity as beloved daughters of God and to respond with confidence to the life God is calling them to live.

Both retreats are held at Camp Whitcomb/Mason – James Lodge.
Cost: $45 per student. We will invoice your parish for students.

Bring a Group from Your Parish

Ready to bring your students? Complete the Parish Spot Request Form below to request spaces for Legacy and/or Magnify.

Important Information for Parish Leaders

• Request realistically. Please request only the number of spots you reasonably expect to fill. We want to make these retreats available to as many teens as possible—and we want every available spot filled!

• Archdiocesan overnight policies apply. Each parish group must be led by a parish staff member. Adult chaperones may not bring a parish group without a staff member serving as the group leader. This applies even when the parish staff member is the opposite gender of the students attending. We will provide separate activities and accommodations for opposite-gender parish leaders during appropriate portions of the retreat.

• Complete student registration by the deadline. Each student must complete the required online registration and paperwork by the deadline listed below. Students may withdraw before the deadline without the parish being responsible for their remaining balance. After the deadline, the parish is financially responsible for all registered spots.

  Legacy Men’s Retreat: January 1, 2027
  Magnify Women’s Retreat: February 1, 2027
   

Questions about the retreats, registration, or bringing a parish group? Please contact Andrew Schueller, Director of the Office of Youth & Young Adult Ministries.

We can’t wait to welcome your students for a weekend of prayer, community, adventure, and encounter with Christ!
