Senior Year – Kairos Retreat
Kairos means God’s time. Kairos is a religious retreat program grounded in Christian incarnational and sacramental theology. It is a three-and-a-half-day retreat for seniors, experienced at the Carmelite Spiritual Center in Darien. The retreat focuses on where one is in relation to God, others and self. The candidates live the experience of a Christian community to help them appreciate and value themselves as a young Christian adult. Along with this comes appreciation of those particular people (parents, relatives, friends) who make life meaningful.
