The 4th annual “Silence & Action” Retreat, a foundational experience where students and mentors step away from a culture where the space to reflect is increasingly rare. 

Participants will embrace the rewarding climb of spiritual growth, engaging in talks, storytelling, small group discussions, individual reflection, and the celebration of the Eucharist. By deepening their understanding of Carmelite history and spirituality, attendees will cultivate spiritual friendships and create a concrete action plan to further ingrain the Carmelite charism within their respective school communities. 

Friars who are local to the area are invited to attend the student presentations on July 8 th followed by dinner and mass.

Attendees:
Delegations of 2 adults and 4 students from Crespi Carmel, Mount Carmel
High School, Salpointe Catholic, Carmel Catholic Mundelein, and Joliet Catholic.
Hosted By: 
The Vocations Team and Kammie French, Carmelite Sponsorship
Coordinator.
