Retreats & Conferences Offered

Middle School Retreats

Each grade level at Blessed Maria Assunta Pallotta Middle School participates in an annual retreat in which students go off campus to explore their spiritual foundations as well as develop stronger relationships with one another.  As part of these retreats the students partner with retreat leaders from Columbus Catholic High School to deepen their faith, build strong bonds as grade level peers and to explore concepts appropriate for their age and faith background to grow in their love of Christ and of one another. 

High School Renewals

Class Renewals provide a short opportunity for students to get-away. Renewals include fun and games, Christian life advice, and compelling faith reflections by students, teachers, graduates, and/or other adults.

Freshman Renewal

The freshman renewal is based on forming integrity, building good character, and encountering faith beyond confirmation. This retreat is led by upperclassmen, who provide high school advice and witness reflections on the overview of faith in the teenage years.

Sophomore Renewal

The sophomore renewal is based on creating one’s unique identity of self, and concreting students’ ideals in the midst of busyness and peer pressure. Through this renewal, upperclassmen share how sophomores can stand for their values, avoid negative peer pressure, and witness to specific experiences that brought their faith to life.

Junior Renewal

Junior renewal is themed on leadership and vocation. The renewal directs students to reflect on their high school future and beyond, specifically how they are called as leaders at Columbus Catholic High Schooland in the greater world.

Senior Renewal

Senior renewal focuses on living Catholic faith and values beyond high school. This renewal provides an opportunity for relatable, faithful adults to challenge the soon-to-be graduates to commit to the path of discipleship.
