Christeen Retreat

This retreat is meant for teenagers in order to build-up a morally enriched life, with commitment to Christ and the society. Besides, this retreat helps studentsto attain self-confidence and enthusiasm. Students of 10 to 18 age group attend this retreat. How to live in purity and the dignity of human life is also explained to them, with the aid of sacramental ceremonies and Holy Mass. Classes by various resourceful personalities and spiritual services by the priests constitute the major part of these retreats.

VICTORY RETREAT

Victory retreat is exclusively meant for students of Xth class (SSLC students in Kerala). It ensures and instils better confidence in them to face their first public examination with  courage, pleasure and hope. It is painfully observed that a lot of suicidal attempts are reported, especially in Kerala among SSLC students. After exam, The students are given the confidence that Jesus the greatest teacher is with them during the exam. It also help them to keep good manners and systematic study and preparation for exams, to respect their parents, teachers and elders thus growing dear to God and people.

 

 

FAMILY  RETREAT

Every family resembles the Holy Family. In such a way, all of us are required to lead a pleasing life to each other to fulfill the desire and motto of our Saviour Christ. For this, better understanding and warm relationship among the family members are essential. In order to boost the role and responsibility of each member of a family, be it the father or the son, a common forum would be a desideratum, which can provide enough opportunities to share and hear the sorrows, stress and opinions of all members of the family. Moreover, this would help to abridge the gap between parent-child, husband-wife relationships, if any. This is the motive behind family retreat. Mr. Santhosh Thomas is the chief programme co-ordinator of Christeen family retreat.

 

ANGELS RETREAT
