The Lenten Busy Student retreat is free and takes place during the Lenten season, on campus, in the midst of your everyday life.  There are no requirements or prerequisites; anyone can make this retreat.  Many people find it a great way to incorporate some form of intentional prayer and spiritual growth into their everyday lives.

The retreat has 3 components

1. Time to Pray-Participants commit to 20 minites a day of prayer for the 16 days of the retreat.
2. Companions-The retreat assigns students a spiritual companion, and participants meet 3 times with them over the course of the retreat.  These are one-half to one-hour individual meetings with any of several campus ministers or other BC faculty/staff to discuss any issues relating to one's faith and life experience.
