Retreats

In keeping with the mission of Incarnate Word Academy and the spiritual formation of Women of the Word, all students are REQUIRED to participate in their class-level retreat each year. Retreats are an essential part of students’ faith development, offering opportunities for prayer, reflection, community, and encounter with Christ. 

Retreat Schedule: 

  • Freshmen: One-day retreat
  • Sophomores: Two-day retreat
  • Juniors: One-day retreat
  • Seniors: Three-day Kairos retreat

Attendance at the scheduled class retreat is mandatory. If a student is unable to attend her class retreat, she must work with the Director of Campus Ministry to arrange an alternate retreat at a retreat center, parish, or youth ministry program. Completion of an approved retreat is required in order to receive credit. 

Successful participation in all four class retreats is a graduation requirement.
