In Luke 1:38, Mary responds to God with a simple yes: “Let it be done to me according to your word.” That yes wasn’t easy. It wasn’t convenient. And it didn’t come with guarantees. But her yes, literally changed the world. This retreat is an invitation to step away from the noise, pressure, and busyness of Northwestern life—and to get honest about one question: Where is God inviting you to say yes?
Through prayer, witness talks, creative activities, silence, and more, we’ll explore what it really means to trust God in the concrete reality of your life. Your life won’t be defined by what you achieve. It will be shaped by what you say yes to. So, come as you are—seeking, skeptical, searching, or all in. Open to all undergraduate students. The retreat costs $150, with scholarships available. Arrive at Sheil and transportation provided to retreat center.
Cost: Free!
