About the Deepening Graduate Retreat
During the Spring Semester of 2003, the first Graduate Student/Young Adult Retreat was created. Since then there has been a GSYA retreat every year and the name of the retreat is Deepening. This retreat is aimed at the issues facing graduate students and young adults who have transitioned from undergraduate studies to grad school or the working world and are now exploring such faith issues as discerning careers and direction in life, relationships, solitude, prayer, community, and more. Retreatants have the opportunity to listen to and talk with community members and other retreatants who have struggled or are struggling with similar issues. Typically about 50 graduate students and young adults attend this retreat every spring. The retreat is usually in February or March and is a full weekend, Friday evening to Sunday morning. Every year a new group of people attend this retreat with exception to the retreat team who helps organize the retreat. If you are interested in attending keep an eye out for registration in the early spring. For more information contact Troy Woytek, woytek@washucsc.org.

Praise and Adoration
As described on Bustedhalo.com - "Eucharistic Adoration consists of placing oneself in a deeply contemplative spirit before the presence of Christ in the Blessed Sacrament (the host consecrated at Mass is placed in a sun-shaped display case called a monstrance; one of Jesus' ancient titles is the "Sun of Justice")." The atmosphere during adoration at the CSC is one of reverence in silence, hymns, vocal prayers and meditation on Sacred Scripture.
Adoration in the presence of the Blessed Sacrament happens every Wednesdays from 8-9pm in the CSC chapel. Please join us in prayer with the Lord for any amount of time during our holy hour.
Contact anyone on our Adoration Leadership Team for questions:

Professional Mentorship Program:
Our mentorship program is designed to connect both undergrads and graduate students to professionals in their field of study. The point of the program is to give students a chance to not only learn about what they need to know going into that profession, but also to talk with the mentor about the intersection of faith and their professional life. Mentors meet with students 1-2 times per semester. Contact Troy Woytek at woytek@washucsc.org if you are interested in being mentored or becoming a mentor.
