THE IMPACT OF RETREATS The retreat experience at Gibbons is as spiritual as it is educational. It is also formational and enduring. For retreatants attending one of the more than 40 retreats Gibbons offers, the focus is to pray, grow, and live the story of their faith in their hearts. It is a story that strengthens both the soul and the spirit. Today, these discoveries are occurring during retreats at the Cardinal Gibbons Short Journey Retreat Center in Smithfield our school’s new home away from home.
Crista Anders & Tim Yelenic RETREAT DIRECTORS
“Directing our retreats over the years has added a vibrance to our faith lives that didn’t exist before. It is such an honor to be welcomed into so many people’s lives and to walk with them through their transformative retreat experience. Also, getting to do that at our second home, Short Journey, makes it even more fulfilling, engaging, and inspiring.”
