Join us for an amazing weekend to connect with your faith and fellow seekers! Our program is subject to change, but is already full of all sorts of meaningful fun!
We will have lots of Oblates joining us in the capacity of keynote speakers, breakout session leaders, and just someone to talk to about life!
