A day-long retreat was organized for the students, offering them a moment to reflect on their lives. Fr. Anisio Mota and Fr. Arnold led the sessions, dividing the students into two groups. The retreat provided an opportunity for deep reflection on various aspects of life that often go unnoticed in the daily hustle.
The sessions emphasized the importance of appreciating the gift of parents and teachers, highlighting their pivotal role in shaping the lives and values of young individuals. Students were encouraged to reflect on their relationships with their parents and teachers, recognizing their unwavering support and guidance.
Another key focus was on the value of true friendship. In an age where social interactions are often superficial, the retreat stressed the significance of nurturing genuine connections. True friends are those who stand by you through thick and thin, providing love and support.
In the digital age, the platform of social media has become integral to our lives. The retreat reminded students to be mindful of how they engage with it. While social media can connect people, it should be used wisely, avoiding distractions and unhealthy comparisons.
Overall, the retreat provided a meaningful experience, urging students to reflect on their daily lives and relationships, and inviting them to live with a deeper sense of gratitude and awareness.
