Brief Description:
This is Marquette's own version of a Kairos Retreat, Search or TEC. Fundamental to this retreat is the peer reflection on the Ignatian charisms, which has influenced Marquette University as a Jesuit Institution.
On this retreat, you will find yourself;
- listening to peer's witness to Jesuit Ideals,
- spending time reflecting on how these Jesuit ideals are found within your life
- sharing insights in small groups
- praying both alone and as a faith community
- relaxing away from campus to focus on yourself and your God
- having fun!
Retreat Location:
St. Vincent Palotti Retreat Center, Elkhorn, WI
A short 40 minute drive Southwest of Milwaukee in quiet, farm country. The Retreat Center is on a small, wooded acreage with access to short walking paths. The Retreat Center itself is just like home. The main building is a refurbished home with many quaint bedrooms and corners to find for quiet prayer. It also includes a conference room with a fire place, dormitory sleeping for 30, and a chapel. The promise of home cooked meals by have always been the draw for this retreat!
Retreat Cost: $45 for all transportation, food and lodging for the entire weekend.

- All beds have sheets and blankets so all you need to bring is your own personal toiletries and a towel.
- Some bring a blanket to ward off the chill.
- Other necessaries include:
- A Bible
- A pen and Journal or paper to write on
