Qghth Grade Retreat

On May 16,2002, the Eighth Grade grew closer to God on the “One-On-One” Eighth Grade retreat. Talks were
presented on God’s love, sin and Jesus as our redeemer. Students shared in small groups and they participated in different
ictivities. The goal of the retreat was to deepen students’ relationship with God, themselves and others. The eighth graders are
about to experience different roads in the future such as High School, and the purpose of the retreat was to send the students
off with a sense that they are loved by the Carrollton community, their parents and God.

Seventh Grade Retreat

December 15,2001 the seventh graders grew close to God and friends at the Friendship Retreat which took place at St. Louis
itholic Church. The students gathered in small groups to share their thoughts on what values guide their life. As friendships
s strengthened so was their relationship with God. The students shared in small groups and some High School students gave
s. Not only was there reflecting but there were games and spiritual activities. They left the retreat acknowledging how special
friends are as well as family and God.
