From 15–17 November 2024, nine members of Bethlehem University’s Christian Youth group embarked on a transformative three-day spiritual retreat. Disconnecting from the distractions of daily life, including their cell phones, the group immersed themselves in prayer and activities designed to deepen their faith and foster personal growth.
Using creative expressions like theater and art, as well as connecting with nature, embracing silence, and engaging in thoughtful discussions, participants explored profound questions: Who is God? and How do we pray? This spiritual retreat not only strengthened their faith but also built a close-knit community that has continued to thrive on campus.
Bethlehem University’s Christian Youth group aims to hold a similar retreat each semester. If you’re interested in joining or supporting future retreats, please come see Abouna in the Waha!
This retreat highlights the university’s commitment to fostering spiritual growth and building meaningful connections within the community.
