Our retreats give students time and space to step away from their normal day-to-day life to reflect on their journey of faith and grow in their relationship with God. They also provide an opportunity for our students to develop meaningful relationships with their classmates and grow as a faith community together. They are an integral part of the BMC experience, and something that students often consider one of the highlights of their school year.

If you have any questions about our retreats, reach out to Sr. Kristi Bergman (bergmank@bishopmoore.org), Director of Campus Ministry.

Overnight Retreat

Our BMC Overnight Retreats are multi-day retreats offered at the beautiful San Pedro Spiritual Development Center. BMC Overnight Retreats are offered each year to students as a way for them to both grow in fellowship with one another and deepen their walk with the Lord. The Men’s and Women’s Overnight Retreats are hosted separately, giving our students time to reflect and journey together as brothers or sisters. These retreats are a highlight of the year for many of our students and a beautiful way to form bonds of friendships with classmates and peers. Our overnight retreats are a combination of reflection, prayer, and fun, as students are invited to grow in their walk with Christ and form a deeper bond with their brothers or sisters on retreat.

• January 23 - 25 (Senior Men Overnight)
• February 11 - 12 (Underclassmen Men Overnight)
• February 20 - 22 (Senior Women Overnight)
• March 24 - 25 (Underclassmen Women Overnight)
   

Additional Retreat Opportunities

We also offer a number of retreat experiences throughout the year for various clubs and teams. Those are scheduled in coordination with the club sponsor or coach. We recognize that our teams and clubs have a built-in community, and our sports and club retreats are meant to strengthen that community, create a positive team culture, and recognize how God is working in and through the team or club.
