Many people find it a great way to incorporate some form of
intentional prayer and spiritual growth into their everyoday lives. 

The retreat takes place this semester from
Tuesday, October 27 to Thursday, November 5.

The retreat has 3 components:

1. Time to Pray
    Participants commit to 20 minutes a day of prayer a day for the duration of the retreat.

2. Companions
    Participants meet 2-3 times over the course of the two weeks with a spiritual
    companion. These are 1-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.  The retreat assigns students with companions.

3. Gatherings

    in the retreat to gather for community prayer and reflection.  Participants receive a
    calendar of the gathering times with other events after signing up.
