Friday, November 8The goal of the autumn faculty and staff retreat is to provide a time for individual and communal spiritual reflection and renewal, to deepen faculty and staff connections to one another and to the University’s Catholic, Holy Cross mission and identity, and to invite participants to reflect on and embrace their vital contributions to our shared mission.
The theme of this retreat is Sacred Music. Join us and be refreshed by an encounter with Sacred Music with retreat leaders Maureen Briare and Hector Mendoza.
Please note that participation in the retreat will be considered a regular workday for staff, per supervisory approval.
