Kairos Retreat
Kairos, adapted from Greek to mean "God’s Time," is a Christian retreat program geared
toward deepening one's faith, identity, relationships, and connection to God's role
in our lives. This retreat is an opportunity to find meaning in the highs and lows
of your life.
Kairos is a journey of the heart, mind, and soul. On the weekend, you will hear from
your peers, be invited to share your own story, and discover a community of affirmation
and companionship. Everyone has a story worth telling, and everyone is welcome to
embark on this journey.
We accept students from all class years.
Dates
Fall Semester: November 21-13, 2025
Spring Semester: March 27-29, 2026
Cost
The Kairos Retreat cost is $75.
All payments can be made by credit card through The Bridge. The fee covers transportation, lodging, meals, and all other expenses for the weekend. The entire cost of a weekend retreat for one student is $190.00, however, Campus Ministry subsidizes $120+ of the retreat cost per student.
Full payment is due at least 14 days prior to the Retreat (some retreats require earlier payment). If you have not paid, you forfeit your spot on the retreat. $25 of your registration fee is a non-refundable deposit. If you cancel your registration by contacting the Retreat Director more than one week in advance, you will be refunded your fee minus the deposit. If you cancel less than one week in advance, your full payment is non-refundable.
Scholarships
Loyola believes that cost should never prohibit a student from experiencing a retreat. Generous donors provide scholarships for any and all students who require support to attend a retreat. If you need scholarship assistance, please contact Mark Dushel at mdushel@loyola.edu.
Register
Registration for the Fall 2025 Kairos will open in the Fall semester.
Registration for Kairos Retreat will be made through the Bridge.
Please note, submitting a registration form does not guarantee your spot on the retreat. Campus Ministry has a commitment to building community on retreats where students have the opportunity to learn, share, and pray with students from diverse backgrounds and identities. To ensure this intentional diversity, after you submit your registration, students may be placed on the waiting list. You will be notified to confirm a spot on the retreat.
