Sometimes you just need to get away.
We recognize the impact that a retreat can have, so we seek to provide a fun and meaningful experiences that college students can afford. We offer three retreats throughout the year
|
Welcome Back TripThis trip serves as a welcome to new students as well as a welcome back to returning ones, and takes place during the first month of classes. The focus of this trip is to provide a fun adventure that builds community among all those involved.

Fall RetreatThis retreat combines fun, relaxation, and spiritual growth to create an experience you will not soon forget. This retreat includes organized group activities, personal free time, a guest speaker, and worship. Fall Retreat is another opportunity to get to know one another during the first semester.

Winter RetreatSimilar to our fall retreat, winter retreat occurs at the beginning of the Spring Semester. This retreat includes organized group activities, personal free time, a guest speaker, the opportunity to meet other Wesleyan groups, and worship. Winter Retreat is an opportunity to let go of the weights that you carry, create and strengthen lasting friendships, and be challenged spiritually.

Beach Trip
At the end of the year, we take a trip to relax and take
a break from the craziness of the school year. Our beach
trip is a time to grow closer with fellow students without the looming worry of school work being due. This time away creates strong bonds, builds our family-like atmosphere, and helps us all appreciate the down time.
