                   On  January 26th,  2007  the seventh
                   grade went on a spiritual retreat.  It was
                   a break from school and a  time for each
                   individual  to find out who  they are and
                   how they can  improve themselves.  In  this
                   time the students connected with each other
                   and made new friendships with people  they
                   least expected.  It was  a  time for conflicts  to
                   be resolved,  to  learn better ways to respond
                   to some circumstances,  how to become more
                   united as a group and to act responsibly
                   as an  individual.  It  was a favorable and
                   exuberant experience for the students.

                                                                  communicating with our peers,  the Junior High
                                                                  retreats are a great way  to have a closer relationship
                                                                  with  God. The retreats strengthen us spiritually by
                                                                  teaching  us  that we will always  have a place in  God's
                                                                  heart.  During  the retreats we have group conversations
                                                                  to build  new friendships and pray.  Retreats are a
                                                                 fundamental  time  that we  take  to get  to  know ourselves,
                                                                  others, and God.
