Do you know what’s in store for you down the road? Do you know what’s in store for you now? Have you explored all of the possibilities that you are capable of, most of the possibilities that you are capable of, or even some of the possibilities that you are capable of?
This world is full of choices and full of possibilities. Some aren’t as clear as others. Sometimes, all you have to do is get away for a while to see the answers to self-questions. Sometimes, you need to talk them over with others. Search is a wonderful opportunity to get away for a weekend to think over where you are in the world. This retreat sets the foundation for self-exploration and growth.
Search enhances personal awareness. This retreat gives all the chance to evaluate all aspects of one’s life. I went to a public high school and did not get the chance to go on retreats. I went on Search V the first semester of my freshman year, and it is the best thing that I have ever done with my life. I had an entire weekend to think about my life. During my hectic schedule, it’s sometimes hard for me to find five minutes to think about what I really want to be doing. Since first semester at Cabrini, I have been highly involved in everything. I am either working in the newsroom or doing whatever activity Campus Ministry is currently involved. I am so glad that I put aside this weekend.
Search IX is Nov. 9-11. The deadline for applications is Tuesday, Oct. 23. This time around, I am leading the retreat with Anthony Contipidero and I can’t wait to go back. I urge everyone to consider going on this retreat. I am thankful that I did. I love it when a Search comes together!
