YAC Retreat
We offer two retreats each year: Spring (April 26, 2025 with optional overnight at Mar-Lu-Ridge in Jefferson, Md.) and Fall (November 1-2, 2025 at Loyola University Retreat Center in Flintstone, Md.). Our retreats are peer-led with opportunities to share in small groups and celebrate the Sacraments. They are in a format that integrates Ignatian spirituality with contemporary issues that are important to us as young adults.

Young adults are invited to attend other parish retreats as well. Click here to view more opportunities to make an Ignatian retreat at Holy Trinity.
The Seekers' Retreat is an intentional time of sharing, prayer, and reflection for young adults seeking meaning in an often chaotic world. The day-long retreat (with optional overnight) provides an opportunity to explore how we come to know ourselves, how we identify what’s important to us, and how we discover our deepest desires – and how all that connects with a relationship with God and the faith community. The retreat includes peer witness talks, small group discussion, individual prayer and reflection time, the celebration of Mass, free time to play, hike or make art, and the opportunity for the sacrament of Reconciliation and spiritual conversation. You can stay for just the day (ending around 7:30pm), or stay overnight in rustic cabins and enjoy a deepening of the retreat theme Sunday morning. Sunday departure is after lunch and cleanup, around 1:30pm.
Spiritual accompaniment will be provided by Fr. Ray Parcon, SJ and Catherine Heinhold, Pastoral Associate for Ignatian Spirituality & Prayer.
When: April 26th, 9:30am until 7:30pm
Optional overnight: through April 27th at 1pm
