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 to attain self-confidence and enthusiasm to students. Students from ten to eighteen age group attend this retreat. How to live in purity and the greatness of human life are 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 essence of these retreats.

VICTORY RETREAT

Victory retreat is exclusively meant for students of Xth class (SSLC students in Kerala). It ensures and injects better confidence on them to face their first public examination with  courage, pleasure and hope. It is observed that a lot of suicidal attempts are reported, especially in Kerala among SSLC students . The presence of Christ beside the student in the examination hall is the highlighted theme of this retreat. This retreat also helps students as to the basic manners and systematic steps for preparing for their studies, the role and value of their teachers, parents etc., in making them a perfect student and a pleasing personality before man and God

 

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

This is a new type of retreat introduced by Christeen. This retreat is meant for young children below the age of 8 years. Parents are also attending this retreat with their children. Basic lessons of God’s love, about Christ as their Saviour, about the nature, role of parents and teachers are beautifully and attractively presented before these little ones with the help of skits, musical entertainment, dances and action songs etc.. This helps them to grasp the basic understanding about God’s love and role in their life.
