In the Gospel of Matthew, Jesus proclaims, “You are the salt of the earth … You are the light of the world.” Our call to discipleship, to spread the flavor and light of Christ to society, is the foundation of the new Salt & Light Retreat. This weekend will offer students a retreat experience steeped in the Catholic tradition. Through a variety of group discussions, faith sharing activities and ritual celebrations, we will explore what it means to be Catholic.
