"Becoming a saint means becoming more fully yourself, becoming what the Lord wished to dream and create, and not a photocopy. Your life ought to be a prophetic stimulus to others and leave a mark on this world, the unique mark that only you can leave. Whereas if you simply copy someone else, you will deprive this earth, and heaven too, of something that no one else can offer."

This passage from the papal encyclical Christus vivit is what has inspired our retreat theme this year. We invite you join us as we encounter the living God through prayer, talks, and the Sacraments, learn how we are meant to respond to His call of discipleship, and become who we are meant to so that we can, as St. Catherine of Sienna says, "set the world on fire".
